Concussion

I tripped on a thought and smashed my head

spent the next few days laying in bed

voices made noises but can't say what's said

Dumbfounded lost the ability to communicate

Befuddled in a life I don't participate

A life now full of shit drowning in dread

instantly my whole world was torn apart

can't trust the brain, can't trust the heart

Mystified, ah struck, I start to hallucinate

Mortified, I watched nightmares rejuvenate

they used a technique that's a dying art

Wasn't long after that my sanity fled

the voices got louder their resonance spread

The next morning, without warning, I woke up dead
