The LGBT+ Community are people too! (Random book #2)

Half Lidded

Half lidded eyes hide things from users, making them unseen
The fog of the state of unrest, yet it melds with the state of rest

I view the scene as if from above
Seeing my body below yet not being one with it

The drone of the T.V deepens the state of drowsiness as she lay on the couch

The blue light of her phone fades in and out of sight as the vision blurs

Lifting her head slowly to gaze at the TV through half lidded eyes
The soft pixels blurring together, a matrix of colors to capture the eye

Sinking lower, lower, lower
The soft embrace of unconscious trying to claim her

The muffled folds of the gentle arms of nothingness beckoning
Wrapping gently around the user below

A sudden sharpening of the senses brings me back
Half lidded eyes opening fully to gaze at the world

I am one with myself again
No longer floating above it all

A sense of unease passed through the mind
A feeling of narrowly escaping something

But what, I think, would want this world as their home
What entity would be willing to sacrifice what they have for mine

A scream emits from the glowing box on the wall
The movie on screen drawing my attention once more

I sit up straighter to better watch the movie
And the uneasy feeling vanishes in the wake of the waking world
