Imagination

Wandering through dark clouds,
Thunder taking away my hearing.
Did I miss you calling me?

I tread carefully,
So afraid my feet will slip through.
Would you catch me?

My hands reach forward,
Keeping me out of harms way.
Could you help me?

I tear up,
In the night, I can't see.
Be my eyes please?

I feel you arms,
So close to mine.
Let me hold onto you?

I take your sleeve,
I feel you shaking.
Are you crying, too?

We take tiny steps,
Moving forward just barely.
Am I the reason those tears have ceased?

Voices echo in our heads,
Tiny and floating.
Who could be screaming?

I lose grip,
You slip away from me.
Have I lost you permanently?
