It is said
that those who do not sleep
confuse reality with dreams
because dreams do contain
the surrealness of reality
A dream
is never as it seems
because dreams are not real
nor is reality
For reality is just a blank face with a mask
shielding and concealing
the true mystery that life truly is
So those who cannot sleep
will never know when they wake up
moving from a dream
and fading back to reality
like an ocean wave
when it recedes
back into the depths of the water
Awake, asleep
awake,
asleep
They will not notice
because dreams and reality
are one in the same
A parallel universe
caught in between.
