Tic, tic, tic.
I wake suddenly up.
Is it just the clock?
I don't think. Let me look around.
Something's uncommon.
The door is open and window broken.
Something must be stolen.
Wait. This isn't my room. Not my house.
But last I remember I was falling free.
Why could I hear sounds so clearly?
I'm panting, crying, shouting.
Yet no one discovers me.
The one there, it's me younger.
Why could I see my own self?

Wait. This isn't my room. Not my house.
But last I remember I was walking free.
I'm all tied up now.
Why is there a deafening silence?
I'm panting, crying, shouting.
Yet no one hears me.
The one walking, that's me there.
I've grown older.
Why could I see my own self?
