I did it
it happened I told myself
never again you've learned
you know who me I dont know
who am I
where is this place leaking into
me a welcome call coming back where
was I where am I I found myself standing
there crying out for me in the fog
and I came
quiet silence dimly lit haze and fast moving
vapor passing my eyes I couldnt see it before
but now I have regained sight and self only
to see that I am lost feel light
feel
relaxed
tingly sensations flow up and down my body
in waves thick with power and flashes of
past events flicker fuzzy through fog like a worn
out old movie projector of my life in a
smoke-filled room allowing me to see
past mistakes
lessons learned
allowing me to stand in the past and
look forward look into the future and see me
now see what happened to myself after I got
forced out pushed pulled out of
myself
but I noticed that when I returned I felt it
that feeling in my stomach
that only means one thing

I slipped
and
FELL...

You've expressed this quite well.
I felt panic and anxiety as I read ....
and found my self holding my breath!

Well Done.
