Life is like a written story, it does not last forever, but it can be told over and over again.


I imagine myself sleeping, but

Do I ever sleep?

I close my eyes and find myself

In a universe that is not actually ours.

Traveling the multi-universe with no intentions

Of living the life as if it were to be my own;

Asking myself if this is for real.

For any reason I don't doubt the feeling 

Of openness and freedom;

For the feeling is truly lucid.

 

I'm awake, and

I'm aware that I am awake.

Physical, but not realistic.

If I never sleep, therefore

I'm always awake; but

If I'm always awake, unfortunately

I never dream.

 

I don't know for sure if

Every reaction is a response from other actions, because

If I close my eyes and find myself somewhere else;

It defeats the question of whether or not

Do We Ever Sleep?
