I open

my eyes

after having closed

them for such a long time

And I see clearly now,

I am both alive

and dead at the same time;

I can see color and

I can see back and white

yet the feelings of each person are now

like a smoky haze

I had no idea I

could just observe about them

Like never before and

I thought ghosts were not real but

I can see that they are and so many people

carry them around as if

all of life had a

battery to be recharged and

we didn’t know because

we had not been there yet and so

even the Dinosaur ghosts

could see me as I looked

at them and all

of life is a connected puzzle

yet not everyone can

see attached pieces and

I am seeking different

lives in these conversations

without even knowing it
