When I Realize I'M Sleeping

I’m soaring through all of the things I’ve seen Dancing with the ways things could have been I don’t need eyes to vision my dreams To drift in your world And swing as I sleep The careless slumbers of something sweet There’s evidence here that I’m nothing pure Yet somehow I lie in the dirt and glimmer The sun shines through Sky streaks through the mud I can feel you are close I am aware of your love It pounds in me and it’s eating you A whisper of life A taste so raw I can feel it in my bones In my words and my thoughts How ironic That a fear of death is what kills me And brings me to life Opens my eyes and widens my skies Eternal space Nothing yet full I watch my breath, imagine the clouds I exude When what I see becomes a part of me The stars will be knots in my bloodstream My lungs full of water, the sway of the sea It’s rocking me And it’s scaring you You see in me what I’ll never wish to see in you Everywhere I’ve been is everything I am I look under rocks, I check under the bed Where is the divine, is it all in my head? I question reality in all of its forms I’m dreaming a dream within a dream where I’m dreaming that I’m dreaming I am awake and alive when I realize I’m sleeping
