Eyes Wide Open

"Mixed feelings, like mixed drinks, are a confusion to the soul."
~George Carman
Lying here, eyes wide open,
hearing everything,
nothing makes sense.
Resting in this haze,
trying to make sense of it all.
Heart erupting. Mind corrupted.
PANICKED.
Blinking, trying to regain focus.
Temporarily blinded - gazing at what was, staring at what is -
anchored in an emotional haze.
The vision blurred.
Eyes. Wide. Open.
Dreaming of the should be.
Haunted by what could've been.
Nightmares of heartache, flooded with fears and ifs.
Waking - from the state of struggle -
Walking, burying the pain, but free from the fog.
CALMED.
Shifting the focus to the present,
the now is what you have - the future is uncertain, but timing is everything.
Mind, body, and spirit...
each a different perception, providing 20/20 vision.
Eyes. Wide. Open.
