If Only I Open My Eyes

Neither here nor there 

The mind stuck in time 

Floating through 

Drifting 

Reaching 

Stretching to touch 

Unarmed 

Vulnerable 

Exposed 

Yet I am the only one that can see and feel 

Flashes of a glimpse 

Trapped in a vision 

A million or more of emotions 

Feelings rush to change

But I don’t want to.
