Invisibly Visible..

The cold mist gathered about me..
barely any visibility
I staggered in the dark..Scared out of wits..
trying to reach the indefinite..

Clashing with something hard
I fell down.. felt my hip crack
The pain blinded me..
splitting every nerve..

Mustering all my strength..
I rose..but fell, again..
I crawled a few feet.. A little more..
I could see a fire.. in the distance..

When I came back, the next morning..
the sun sleepy and clouds, pearly..
To look at what had hurt me..
There was nothing.. Just nothing..

It had seemed so solid.. So definite..
But now, not even a trace..
What had stopped me? I gave up searching and turned back..
But just as I was shrugging it off.. I knew! I just knew!
