Tickety-Boom

 The sky has fallen and there's nothing I can do
The world moves slower now
or maybe it's just me
Yes, I think it's just me
Normal life is happening all around me
the unaffected world rolls on
I cannot quite compute
I know that I should know what happens next
but it keeps slipping away
like a dream at dawn
And I slug on
so slowly
walking underwater
everything hazy and heavy and out of hand
Simple things aren't getting down
Right there at the tip of my tongue
and yet I know it won't come out.
Being aware that I'm off my game
doesn't make getting back on it any easier
Processing this death has knocked the wind out of me
Tickety-boo has gone tickety-boom
