today and tomorrow,
i know will feel as if i were in a dream.

yesterday felt unreal,
and the day before did too.

every day feels as though it is not happening,
as if time had stopped,
and i continued on without it.

i become aware that i am living,
breathing,
speaking,
feeling,
and that self awareness becomes too much.

at that point,
everything feels unreal.

the knowledge of my own existence is so mind boggling,
i rather pretend none of it is real,
and continue roaming without time.

there came you,
a timeless companion that made reality's unrealistic nature,
seem more mystical.

you speak ideologies of science i have always doubted,
drifting with the wind wherever it took you,
giving no care to structure or realism.

taking my hand and pushing me through the bifrost that led to all nine realms,
you showed me that reality's incarcerating hold was not the prison i thought it to be.

instead,
as we flew through the open cosmos,
you made me realize my mind had become my own jail cell.
