Awakening

AWAKENING:
A foreign place embraced my slight slumber
     does it haunt me so?
To rise to new lands having no reason
     why am I here?
Those strewn about recollections like confetti
     now spat out on my rug.
New surroundings only baffle me
     where is the rest of me?
My eyes, hands and mind left out
     in the cold for the frost.
Not needed albeit they have a purpose solely mine
     for my conveyance.
Shut only this world 
     once called mine.
Now has it become ours?
