What was once mine
is no longer that
with the ownership changed
in a swift thunder's clap.
All that I identified
myself to formerly be
is no longer my claim to make,
no longer mine rightfully.
I have been stripped
of what I once clung to
in a move so unexpected
leaving me nothing to do.
This thievery that has
occurred from under my nose
leaves me paralyzed,
on the edge of these deaths' throws.
It leaves me unable
to awake after a night
with any ability to accomplish
anything I might.
It leaves me unable
to communicate
rendering me speechless,
an emotion I only dream was fake.
Another night's sleep
could result in the ultimate nap
without that moment
where I awake in a snap,
yet in the place that I am,
the place so lost
that seems to be the price
that it must cost.
