Extraordinary interpretation! One of my favs; quite dark it is. " Surreal" has 3 syllable methinks, making Line 2 an 8 -syllable count.Think so? Win it!

Changed to "reveal" - just in case. Thanks! :-)

Thanks Lyva! Did wonder about the number of syllables in surreal - did some research - some say two - some say three. I think it depends how you pronounce it. Strangely enough, the word "ideal" has the same problem.
