LUCYThe world watches as I


LUCY

The world watches as I travel through space and time

I experience the feeling of euphoria, minutes go by, lustrum pass before my eyes

I have no grasp of reality, it seems as if my odyssey will never come to an end

I listen to my soul which consists of several people in my cranium.

 

I go back to adolescence, “please correct your mistakes Mikey” 

“Mikey please don’t be stupid, I know you’re better than that”

My life skips to a chapter, where I question my existence.

Is this REAL, did THIS REALLY HAPPEN?

 

I LEARN TO CONTROL, I LEARN TO DEFY MY LIMITS AS A PERSON!

My eyes see through another man’s view, this isn’t me.

I don’t clearly understand what I’m seeing, is this death, is this the final moment of my life.

 

I walk down a pitch black space, I don’t see anything nearby.

I cry because I’m alone, I have no one by my side

I hear a voice call by, I close my eyes.

I’m safe and sound, with people by me.

 

Lucy is no longer with me.
