I close my eyes and see bright neon lights, smoke, and people cheering in a crowd
I close my eyes and see shimmering water brighter than the sun above
I close my eyes and see flashing lights and children giggling eating bite after bite of their treats
I close my eyes and see beautiful flowers in glistening green grass
I close my eyes and see a castle bigger than anything I’ve ever seen before
I close my eyes and see stars, gleaming like the fireflies below
I close my eyes and see boutiques with more clothes than you could ever dream of
I close my eyes and see laughter being echoed throughout mouths
I open my eyes and see beeping machines and shining needles surrounding me
I’m alive.
