For a Moment
September 2016
I lost track of time.
It wasn’t a purposeful act:
I was only losing my mind.
I just gave into temptation.
When I opened my eyes
to the realization of what
I had done is when
I lost myself completely.
Every moment of clear thinking
is overshadowed by a dream state.
I used to know the difference,
and sometimes I still believe I do;
but the lines are losing distinction
and my eyes are starting to cross.
My hands are beginning to lose shape.
They bleed and blend into the air
as if they are becoming equal.
Do I exist anymore?
Was I real to begin with?
Or am I just someone’s fleeting thought?
A lifetime in a second.
A death within a dream.
Who knows a true reality?
