So that was it. Gone.
My head throbs my vision has sunk deep within my head and sounds seem unconnected to where I now exist. There is nothing. Numb feeling, dense thoughts. Each time my mind feels as though it has thought of something it goes, everything goes. I cannot tell if my eyes are dry or watery, my muscles slump.
There is no anticipation, there is no surprise that could lurk behind the next turn, even tension has left me now.
I have only my subconscious bodily functions.
All around me the masses swill and wash over me jostling me one way and another, I lose my starched eyes and my body is lazily buffeted forward and backward, side and side, to forward and backwards again. Then from within the depths I realise I am smiling, no, I am laughing uncontrollably, maniacally.
Then stop.
Then nothing.
Is this madness? Is this madness I hear somebody say.
I blink.
Blink.
"Are you alright, mate?" The man's lips move independently from the sound, the sound reverberates.
I am immortal.
