This is effectively oppressive, Star. I was almost panicking as I read down the page!

I hope you are well.

I LOVE the way you so intentionally used the semicolon here. It stands out so singularly to me and is the perfect transition to the last line.

This makes the mind to imagine a lot of things and
makes the reader wander about the abyss...the writer
is in...well penned!

Falling into the darkness, hoping for another chance, where we can be on steady ground again, re-connected with life.... such meaning in so few lines!

I felt uplifted in this, because I too, knows what it means to forget or not be able to remember what being alive means. Being so distant from it, yet realizing I can try again. The simple hope of another "breath" speaks volumes. Another shot at life, and how human it is to fall down, to lose sight of land, to feel like we can't keep holding on... and knowing we have to keep the hope that we can be offered an anchor, another start.

LOVE THIS STAR!! :)

The frustration. I have have dreams exactly like these words describe it. It’s scary.
