REAWAKENING

My eyes had been closed just as they were before I had come to this world

Blinded, yet aware of the environment surrounding me

I existed…

I played someone else, like a very skilled actor

So well that I thought that I was playing myself

Suddenly, without warning, my world crumbled and was destroyed

Not by flame, water or wind

But by love…from inside

Along with my world the actor within was no more

As I experienced darkness, real solitude for the very first time

And felt despair, like that of a man who sees his own death approaching

Such agonizing torture

My body trembled, as I felt lost, and without direction

Then as what was left remained cleared

From the utter and total devastation…

A new view, a brand new world appeared to my amazement

I was no longer the same man,

I was no longer the performer…

In truth, I found myself being the man I was supposed to be

Love and torment made a phoenix of me

But you were not there, beside me anymore

But my eyes have been opened again, for the very first time

I do not know where you have gone, as I dare not open the dream to find where

The falling star wounded me

I know what I know,

An entire world was lost

But another, a paradise has taken its place

…I have reawaken.
