this isn’t down
or up..

but some other
direction

i’ve never been pulled
towards before,

no longer hanging loose
or stuck to any
ceiling-

losing hold
on familiar feelings.

i’ve tapped into
something

that i can’t
unsee,

despite exhaustive
attempts at
relief,

i’ve wandered in
somewhere

a soul can’t
escape–

so it’s best i stay lost
and create.
