Semi-lucid dreams

She looks at you and smiles,
it is the right time,
it is the right place,
and your heart skips a beat.

She walks to you and says
'you look nice.'
You send the right signals,
making her want more.

You were chosen,
but what are you?
You were chosen,
but what does it mean?

She touches you and smiles,
it is the right moment,
it is the right thing,
and your body is on fire.

She dances with you and says
'I want you.'
You say the right words,
making her want more.

You were chosen,
but what are you?
You were chosen,
but what does it really mean?

Now why do I feel so hollow?

Once I thought I had a soul,
but then I looked at the world
and realized that
there is no such thing.
I am made of cells and atoms -
a slave to material needs.

I have all the right parts,
yet I am all wrong somehow.

Once I thought life had a purpose,
but then I looked at the world
and understood that
things just happen.
We are made of cells and atoms -
slaves to material needs.

We have all the right parts,
yet we are all wrong somehow.

Now why do you feel so hollow?
