all there is

enjoy sound
the last thing
you ever hear.

enjoy the
texture.
revel in the taste.
feel it upon your tongue,
smooth like cream.
let it linger at your lips
and taste it again.

that sound
the last thing
you ever hear.

imagine you're
floating.
ease back.
feel the tingle at
the base
of your spine.

hold it there.
let it swallow you.
the emotion is
numb.
the smell is
of flowers
in a field that
continue on
as far as you can see.

a hand
brushing gently
against your
cheek.

a small breath
in your ear
as warm
as mother's touch.

hold it.

ease back.

the world is heavy,
heavier than
it has ever been before,
but you are as light as air,
lifting.

and that sound is
laughter
because you
finally get the joke.
