Solace Searching

Empty staring, really caring?
Lost in thoughts, caught up on the inside, barely watching the world swirl around and pass me by like a separate realm.
It's all a blur, where did it go? I turn around and realize the world is moving so much faster than I had known before.
Now with my head spinning, I attempt to wrench control of my world back from the chaos.
Too little too late? Time will tell.
Nothing's for certain 'cept for this: Shall these continue much longer, the strains that these burdens place on me will drive me to a point from which all that may be derived is madness.
Slowly slipping, quietly falling, fading, always fading, will there be silence?

I miss it.
