when time gets away
barely breathing
and unable to move
I imagine the sun
rising above
the endless hills
a simple incision
clears a path for a
laser-guided blade
to reshape my mind
and redefine my life
as I lay awakening
to blinding whiteness
the pain I once knew
vanished with time
that never existed
july two thousand thirteen

I can relate to this and it’s so surreal, waking up from anesthesia, wondering where the time went! Hope you’re okay! Great poem!
So glad you can relate to this one, Lauren. As for me, I’m doing fine, thank-you π
I love this one, Jdub….I listened to it again and again x x

that never existed”
