Wake Up.

WAKE UP
It’s all a dream
A tragic scheme to steal your mind.

WAKE UP
Everything that you believe
May be a lie.

WAKE UP
All the things you’ve seen
All the things you’ve done

WAKE UP
If only you could see
What you could become.

WAKE UP
You’ve got to break the mirage
You’ve got to try.

WAKE UP
You’ve got to open your eyes
Before you die.

WAKE UP
Wake up for once
in your life.

I really like what you've written, and the concept resonates deeply with the themes I've been exploring in my own stories. I'd love to incorporate some of these ideas, particularly the distinction between consciousness, perception and awakening.

I'm curious, though. How would you propose that the mortal woman in my stories, who carries God within her, finally wakes from this dream? She's exhausted, has questioned everything she once believed, and longs to reclaim her life with clarity, peace and love.

What would awakening actually look like for someone who has spent so long trying to understand the dream? 🌌🪽🕊️🌹
