Blur

The shutter opens but never closes

I am lost, waylaid in light trails

Endless moments overlaid and burned across

A melee of scattered braille

This image is a night-terror transforming

Without the hope of morning

My nemesis, I feel it coming for me

And it means to destroy me

Why does this keep happening?

I try to close my eyes but I can't blink

And the world keeps moving on

Black and white blur into one

Hieroglyphic, indecipherable, opaque

The meaning escapes me

Dry and lidless are my eyes, asleep, awake

Reading the slurred debris

This image is a night-terror transforming

Without the hope of morning

My nemesis, I feel it coming for me

And it means to destroy me

Why does this keep happening?

I try to close my eyes but I can't blink

And the world keeps moving on

Black and white blur into

Why does this keep happening?

I try to close my eyes but I can't blink

And the world keeps moving on

Black and white blur into one
