dark, spinning
mind body room
spinning
an eddy
of fear
help please
fear of
the unknown
this awful spinning unknown
voices voices voices
who are they
what are they
the angels of light
the shadows of hell
help please
spinning bouncing shaking
don't take me
don't leave me
where are you
come to me
help me please
that light
that piercing awful light
someone anyone help me
thumping spinning thumping
something thumping
my heart my blood spinning
where is it going
where am I
where am I going
that light
that light again
no people no angel no devil
a soft voice
a touch of love
a touch of care
yes she's here
yes yes yes
help me please help me
I'm afraid
the spinning the pounding
so afraid
help me please
please be there
I need you
with your hand
and your your heart
I will always need you
please don't
leave me here
I am so afraid
help me please
please be there
I need you
with your hand
and your your heart
I will always need you
please don't
leave me here
I am so afraid
Great poem.
