Physical Unanimation

Never noticed that was there,
Couldn't feel it being here,
Body feelings don't make sense at all.
Reached out for something
Didn't know what
Knew something was out there.

Physical unanimation,
Playing about with imagination
Twisting mind,
Whirring sight,
Crunching pain?
I don't know

Tried to see what was there
not noticing was it truly real?
Touched its unreality.
Never quite understood
Whether it was something fragmented
A piece of my soul?

Physical unanimation,
Playing about with imagination,
Twisting mind,
Whirring conscious,
What's that hurting?
I don't know.

Knew it was there,
Something lurking,
Piece of deep dark mind.
Reaching for me
Screaming for my freedom
Which was a piece of my chains!

Physical unanimation,
Playing about with imagination,
Twisting mind,
Burning condemnation,
What's that pain?
I don't know.
