Sitting alone in consciousness
Peering through the darkness
Through blurry tired eyes
Watching the other people sleep
Wondering at the amazement
Is this reality? Is that why I
Can feel hot and cold
Can feel rough and smooth
Can see and hear and smell
Can sit up and feel the gravity
Can care for them like family?
I wondered at it for a while...
After so much time in illusion
Reality somehow brings a smile.
