Spacing Out

There is a scene in some space movies,
where someone becomes suddenly untethered,
broken off from the station,

they are adrift and abandoned.
now cue the suspenseful music,
as they drift off and off and off…
Those scenes scare me the most.

Because I remember my own scenes,
when suddenly I have become untethered,
disconnected from the moment,
unable to hold on to anything.
so cue me retreating within,
as I drift off and off and off…
