Teetering Into Salvation

whole, orb nor sphere, sans

beginning nor end am I.

I have been decapitated,

stripped of total identity,

diminished to half.

body sans brain, centered

in the mid of a tightrope

stretched taut across the universe.

null from thoughts, numb from pain

hiding within this half-shell

longing for an out ... teetering

into one's salvation.

Another frightening poem that delves into the insecurity and burning loneliness of one's mind.
U must have felt terrible when you wrote this, i presume ?

'body sans brain, centered
in the mid of a tightrope
stretched taut across the universe.

These are words of a troubled soul, linda...
I hope u recover , soon ~
