when the light goes out and the waters of the day recede
the avatar is left behind with its breath
and you are free to float in the fluid waters authored by the night
they call your nameless name offering you brief reprieve
an escape from the land of the day you believe so real
to swim in the lightlessness
between worlds
between illusion and eternal
this ethereal bay where the hardness of the day mixes with unreality in the craziest ways
permutations multiplying
no stops except for the edge
that holds you here
tethered to the face reality has painted for us
no waving you through the pearl gates
no welcome mat to passing on just yet
here to dream in this unreality
to wake up every morning, churning your dreams aside
here to stay a little while longer
at least, for now
to paint your dreams into the face of life
as if it were real
