Knowing

You tell me I know this.
I'm falling through space
looking into a void of the
unknown. With my knowledge
behind me, I could turn
see it and remember.
But I can't.
I'm racing forward, upward, downward
sense of direction lost while falling
with no gravity.
As you follow me into the unknown you see
light between us, you see me ahead.
So when I show you the
vast darkness consuming me
every second, it scares you.
Since you see only the light.
Belief flickering between light and dark,
as what you hear from me conflicts
the signals you receive
from your own mind, and you don't know
who to believe.
