I woke up this morning

but this time it didn't feel right

I felt lighter

I could swear I was numb

I looked in the Mirror

I couldn't see me

I looked around

all I could see was my faint shadow

I walked out of my room

I saw Mum crying

Dad looked distant

Siblings were weeping

Why couldn't they see me?

I walked into the living room

I saw a twin I never knew

Why was he pale

why was he smiling in his sleep

He looked cold as ice

I couldn't take the silence anymore

So I walked out of my home

I was going to see my friend

Maybe he could tell me the problem

I knocked at his gate

But my fist went through

I tried pushing the gate

But my whole body went through it

I saw him inside

He looked cold

His eyes were filled with tears

I tried calling his name

He didn't even bulge

What was happening?....

Maybe my girlfriend could explain

I went to her house

Her family wasn't in

The house seemed empty

But I could hear her sobbing

Why was she crying?

I wanted to touch her

But I couldn't get a grip

I wanted to hug her

But I went right through her

I couldn't take it anymore

I ran out of her house

Now I'm walking back home

Home now seemed far away

I've been walking for hours

And I wasn't there yet

The street seemed cold

The Sun Couldn't light up my dark soul this time

I've never felt so much contrasting emotions ever before

I see a crowd coming in the distance

They're carrying something or somebody rather

They're coming closer

I can now see them clearly

They're my family and friends

I look at who they are carrying

Oh my words It's me

Now it all started to make sense

Now the pieces were coming together

Now the actions were unified

Now it dawned on me.....

I had passed away in my sleep
