Are You Awake?

A mystery unsolved...

like your very breath...

with all the ins and outs...

'til death clenches its fist...

and takes away your treasures...

fulfillment in a deep trance...

where your emotions enhance...

seemingly limitlessness...

when life awaits you...

the awful ritual it twists...

a misty avatar...

you'll always want to exist...

until an unwanted pulse...

pulling reality's drape...

circuit break-ups...

cancels a fantasy...

you'll never again take-up...

you wake-up, rise...

open eyes to a life that seems...

like death is life...

and life is but a dream...

but, are you awake?...
