Our Lives

What if this world
Was only a dream?
Something that couldn't
Actually be seen.
What we presume 
To be living Is all just a lie?
If that is so ,could we fly?
Look back on the moments
And think to yourself
Am I basically sitting 
On an old, wooden shelf. 
Or should I just keep 
My thoughts 
Locked up inside
Where they cant be seen by 
Your eyes

We are enveloped by our own perceptions. Left to guess about our own conceptions. The moon and stars and sun go round. As we're left to wonder just what we've found. I hope I come back and read some more sometime. I like your style. Peace. :)
