A fleeting image in the dark, trespassing
An empty breath, a beating heart
The words appear from out of nowhere
Both a curse and a prayer
I am aware
I feel it
I see it
I hear it
Who is left to think about it
Study the examiner
Feels like I’m cheating on a test
Somehow I unhooked the cause from the effect
An atom binds with its opponent
Leading to this moment
Indifferent but conscious
