Flicker


Electricity running through my veins in the morning.

I have entered a new realm of inspiration.

Lost in a land of past dreams and now I have escaped.

A pattern of gorgeous questions defining who I could be.

The ceiling could tell me what I said in my sleep.

Only the paper has it all written down.

Soft or harsh words scribbled down in eccentric poems.

I have no idea who I am because I have become too many.

I am a million souls locked up in this one emotion.

These words will help me understand this new realm.

For when the imagination flickers, so will the creation.
