Whether I´m Conscious Or Not

I become aware of what surrounds me,

And dream of what does not.

I open my feelings wide,

I let them express themselves without chains,

Although freedom is immense,

I fear losing reason and I go after them like a huntress,

And they´re my hopeless prey...

I lock them in the dungeon of my being.

There in the darkness, there´s a brilliance,

Such constant intensity takes over me.

Small lights dance to the rhythm,

My own music and beat,

They don´t get bored, nor do they stop,

Attentive to my heart beating,

My breathing calm and agitated sometimes,

Alive and sincere, they communicate and embrace,

In this dimension full of possibilities

Every feeling accompanied me 24 hours a day,

Whether I´m conscious or not

Because even in dreams I laugh and cry,

I get emotional, I love and I hate,

I welcome something or someone,

And then....

I say goodbye to them.
