Everything is out of place
I'm at a loss over the control of my body.
More than one of a single object,
is doubled in my vision
two of you, two of a table and two televisions.
My legs and arms tingle, my hands and feet go numb,
i lose the feeling of my body.
My hands, out of my control
slide down your skin,
i descend under the force of my body's gravity.
You use your grasp to hold my body up,
positioning your hand on my back and laid me down on the
cold, and hard
ground
with care and slowly.
Like it just happened at the rate of speed of light,
my eyes are widening,
opening up.
Right in front of me
everything is clear,
one of you, one of a table,
and one television.
I no longer have
double vision,
everything is clear.
I can feel my hands, my arms,
my legs and feet.
After the loss of control of my body,
as my hands and feet awakens i wiggle my hand and feet back in control,
as my arms and legs awake I wiggle my legs and arms back in control.
You take me by the hand, as my skin contacts with your's
you increase my body's gravitational pull, by bringing me up slowly.
As I stood up with you,
i then picked my feet up at a regular pace, setting each of my feet down in turn.
You contact the skin on my hand with an individual red wrapper,
reading of the word 'Kit Kat' in white letters.
Taking the wrapper by the edge, I use force in the act of pulling off the wrapper.
The wrapper tore, as i then put my index finger, middle finger, and ring finger
on the milk chocolate
at which melted on my fingers, as I took it
out of its wrapper.
I crunch into the bar as I chew
up and down in the crispy wafer between the milk chocolate
that melts in my mouth within the chew
that I allowed to pass through my
throat.
The chew of the chocolate, the melting of the chocolate as I swallow
put everything back in place.
