My body is freezing but it's boiling.
Eyes that see the smallest detail, blury now.
Hands that hold secure, shakey now.
Anbd my mind seems to be running with no thoughts.
Something has happened or will happen,
I can't explain it, I just know it.

I can't seem to think straight,
Write well, or even stand for very long.

I fear that which is in my mind.
Somewhere, it's saying top be afraid.
And I am.
I just don't know of what.

I have closed my eyes briefly,
Fearful that they would not open.
No visions. No answers.
Just a body that's not doing what I tell it to.

My breathing is heavy and labored,
My lungs feel full but empty.
I have a thousand pictures in my head,
And no way to describe them.

So I'll just put the pen down,
Under watchful care of Eagle & Bear,
And I'll try and keep the cold from overtaking me,
Fearful that if I sleep...


I may not wake.
