awakening
suspended above
what used to be
music falters
dancers stumble
stock still is the world
balance disrupted
gravity pulls
core abandoned
life screeches
to a halt
rebuild anew
adapt and grow
changing focus
to keep afloat
and the world perks up

I felt such emotion reading your poem.
In just a few words you strike an accurate note describing the difficult and painful journey the mind can inflict on us; experienced by so many but understood by so few.
To stay afloat is my daily ambition. It is hard.
