In one single instant
The ground gave way and I fell
suffocating...choking on my own fear
How long? Ten seconds, fifteen
an entire life time marked out in screeching tires
Deafening silence, is this happening again...
lock down, shut down, don’t think too quickly
numb, still, ice cold for a moment
and yet the panic twists,
burns, melts down those walls
rising blaze of terror
Stop, stop the pounding of my heart beat
Just need one word
One notion of awareness
Consciousness
- stay
Awake.
No time for –
Oblivion
...wait
Hear him
Wait for him.
Need him.
Please tell me what you think

Beautiful, my dear. Elegant and very much your style of writing, I am glad he is doing well. We will finish our piece together soon.

Katrina.. Katrina Katrina *hugs you tightly* Hun I am so so so very sorry this happened to you. To him. Are you alright? Damian told me that Stephen was going to be alright. Maybe minor surgery, but he did not seem to know anything more. I very much hope that everything is okay. If you need to talk to me, I am here. I love you so very much. And Stephen *smiles* He will come through. You love him too much for him not to, and that is how life works goddamnit. Look at Damian, the stubborn bastard. Nurse him back to health. I am sure you have an excellent bedside manner *Grins*. Everything will work out, and everyone will be fine. Things will fall into place, like they always do, and then we'll do it all over again! That's how families work, yes? I love you. Be well. Beautiful words... My heart aches for you.
Always here, with love
~Amy
