And here I am
living in a vertigo,
surrounded by cashmere and silk
and stuffing my mouth
with mildew and soft wood
that tastes like wet paper.
It's a cosmetic concealment of lies
and I've burned all the attached smiles.

-

I am not Afraid
of Vertigo
But to
Let you
Go..

Vertigo

The ground beneath my feet is sand.
Don't worry.
It's not the shifting kind,
Not the giving-way kind,
Not even the sucking-in quagmire kind.

-

Vertigo - a free roller coaster ride
which can't be controlled.

-

My Illness Tests me
Repeating visits
I know how to fight
These moments of weakness
Only evidence of my fight
Of my fatigue
Which is not a surrender

-

Dizziness
(Vertigo)

Problem cause- Scattered thinking ,
A refusal to look.

New thoughts - I am centred and peaceful in life. It is safe for me to be alive and joyous.

-

Tinnitus:

The Sound of Silence for me,
exists only,
in my cherished memory

-

You know our dreams will never align on the same plane, hence for our existence one of us has to revolve around the other.... And I have "Vertigo" !!

-

Ménière's disease without hearing loss
Has me spinning in my seat
This vertigo hits randomly
Giving me a migraine
Audible hallucinations and ringing ears
Makes me sick
Throbbing in this skull
I just want to drill a hole to my brain

vErTigO
She is on a boat, in the middle of the sea
Mermaids sing to her, tipping her boat over
She flails in the green
In tune with the surf in her head
The sea rises and falls
Taking their cue from her baton arms
The mermaids rock with her
As do the fish with their fins
The octopi with their arms
The crabs with their claws
The sea lions, the orca, the icebergs
The waves rise higher and higher
Reaching for the moon
which cannot resist this late-night jazz
It starts to sway to the pull of the waves
Venus, right by the moon this night
Swings in time
Left to right and left again
The solar system in disarray
Saturn's rings whirl in a frenzy
Now the planets spin right off their orbit
Striving to keep pace
With the girl in the ocean far below
Nothing can hold.
Skidding along the Milky Way
Shattering asteroids in their path,
They crash into Andromeda
Till they finally slow to a swirl
The planets find their spot
Around a new sun
The girl steps out of the sea
Her world is still, at last
