Awakening, I do not see.
This stale air that suffocates me.

I surge upright to find
the dark outside my mind;

Struggling to catch hold
a concept so very bold;

Worth have I, and purpose?
No?  Do I belong in a hearse?

No!  There must be a reason
for my breath in this season.

I arise into the dark and empty place
full, alive, moving apace.

the pain, to be stabilized, to mend, but the pressure is pain.
