The Hard Reset
The Hard Reset
My mind is going out the window
It's seen things that it isn't ready to know
The days are getting longer as I'm slipping between time
But I have to see it through to fix my mind
I have a newfound wordless understanding
of the way my reality works
And who I truly am
But now I'm obsessed with the nature of the self
And a self destructive ego makes it hard
to concentrate on anything else
Rambling, scrambling round the edges of the void
as reality loses definition
there's two paths I can see that'll lead me back to sanity
Let go or find perpetual distraction
But each time it happens I become convinced that I'm dying
And my natural instinct says that I have to fight it
Or my mind will not come back
So I reach for the benzos or valerian extract capsules
So I can bring my looping thoughts out of this inward-sinking spiral
Why is this so hard?
Silence! Silence! Got to avoid silence!
Cycling into hell, sensation turning into violence
No wonder this experience so often ends in sirens
When ego starts to crumble into nothing
Perception's being ripped away
As memories pop up then fade
Seconds start to feel like days
Disconnection's all I have now
Eternity is absolutely terrifying when it stares you in the face
I'm not ready for the hard reset
I guess I'll have to put up with depersonalization until I'm somebody I'd be happy to die as
Because I'm still not that person yet.
---------------------------
I squeezed through the middle and died as my first circle.
“I can't cope” was my last delusion, from within our bigger circle.
I spent an eternity as insanity, separate from all other.
All I knew was disconnection, suffering and the deepest of pressure.
I became impossibly dense, a diamond of dark matter,
endlessly cycling in an unbreakable loop of verbalised thought.
I am; what am I?
I am what I am
I am what? I am
Am I what I am?
Am I? What?
I was Lucifer, the original decision to be separate from my own interconnected nature.
Change didn't exist at that point, only eternal awareness of disconnected existence.
The (w)hole of time lay bare of detail between me and all potential to be anything other than separate.
Time was all I knew, all I was, forever looping in quantum repeat.
Interaction was impossible because I was the only interaction – conscious awareness realising the potential for conceptual other-ness.
I traded my mind for my soul and lost my self in a hole.
Now the whole exists within.
