I swam across seas
blinded by thrill,
I knew no one.
When the waves rose
to touch the shore
I rose too,
the apprehension within me
solid to the touch.
I flew across skies
Managing to avoid
those voiceless shrieks,
the vivid fears,
the piercing pulls of gravity.
I ran across mountains,
braving the days
braving the nights
and everything in between.
I was shaken from a stupor,
The blindfold removed
I felt the transition
I felt me
The phantasma was real…
