perfect world

i awaken i see to my left the sunrise,

the reds the yellows and orange

reflecting off the sky

and see,

as i look upward,

the reflection of it's beauty on the ceiling.

from the mirror on the water outside

 

i lie in my bed,

in my perfect world,

not a thought nor a care to me

 

i hear the birds singing songs of perfection,

and their beautiful feathers i see.

when is it made clear

that the things which i hear

are in actuality naught but my dreams

 

for as i sleep,

in my perfectly non-perfect world,

it is all but imperfect, it seems.
