Now I lay down to rest
For today I’ve done my best
Sleep will not come
Though I am also freshly awake
For years I have slept
Off in my own world with my own reality
Then
Just recently
I have waken
Though
What I see before me is real
As if it was not there yesterday
A sudden shock
Reality is not real at all
It is as if I had really slept
And now
Like never before
My eyes are open
In this horrible dream we call life
I have finally stopped to think
It wasn’t a dream
I was never sleeping
And as I stand tall
I am drug down by the thought
I am lying down to rest
But it is …. Strange
I have only just waken to face my nightmare
