Unreality

This body of bones
The flesh
The wet cells

It disappears in the mirror 
Until there's just a grey impression 
A remainder of vapour

It doesn't exist
What im touching is not there
The real just Unreality

Why did I ever believe 
The body was there, was me
Can't you see..it's nothing

A ghost of what had been
A dream awoken
The truth dissolved

Touch the ether
Fingers grasping for a hold
But there is none
