Abnormal state of mind:
tranquility bliss
It helplessly slipped
through my fingertips

Silhouette blur

Shrieking, deafening silence
panic won't let me be
Mind and body connection lack

All the love in the world
won't save me from this
destruction unfurled
Parasites
crawl and twitch
And they finally consume me
