One

I wrote this a long time ago but I forgot it existed. So I'm posting it on here :)

My body floats on still waters
My mind is enclosed within white walls
My soul is somewhere I know not
I can't even see the life swimming around me

Is this what it means to be lost?
Isolated and alone I situate
Within the confines of myself
My consciousness blurs the lines between illusion and reality
What is the truth of perception?

My senses are dying in this strange world
Is any of this for real, or not?
I no longer feel the warmth of those around me
I no longer sense my own familiarity
What will it take to pierce this veil, and set me free?

Author's Note

This is sort of just straight up, I just wanted to pull this out of me. And here it is :)

Most poetry comes straight from the 'heart'. This is very deep and shows what was flowing through you at the time. Excellent write.

It didnt really need to be creative, it was great either way. I like how you ended this poem also, Nice work :3
