Floating Between Realities
In the sunny field where I reside
Two realities collide.
One of unconsciousness,
One awake,
How am I to choose a place?
The smell of lotus flowers fill my nose,
Shade rains down on me, like a cool hose,
The tree that my back is propped up on is no longer prickly,
I no longer feel sickly.
My body is deprived of sleep,
Now the senses I take in weep,
As I try to cross the border into dreams.
Just beyond my shadowed spot,
The sun shines bright, very hot.
In the field where I sit,
Hundreds of flowers call it home.
That is the only place I have ever known.
In-between thoughts, I slip to sleep, the only place I can fit,
Comfortably.
