|
a man lies in his bed in a room with no door |
|
he waits hoping for a presence, something, anything to enter |
|
after spending half his life searching, he still felt as blank |
|
as the ceiling at which he's staring |
|
he's alive, but feels absolutely nothing |
|
so, is he? |
|
when he was six he believed that the moon overhead followed him |
|
by nine he had deciphered the illusion, trading magic for fact |
|
no tradebacks... |
|
so this is what it's like to be an adult |
|
if he only knew now what he knew then... |
|
i'm open |
|
i'm open |
|
come in |
|
come in |
|
come in |
|
come in |
|
i'm open |
|
i'm open |
|
come in |
|
come in |
|
come in |
|
come in |
|
lying sideways atop crumpled sheets and no covers |
|
he decides to dream... |
|
dream up a new self for himself |
