Daily Enlightenment

Daily Enlightenment

I awake and feel complete.
I sleep and feel disappointed.

I awake and feel joy.
I sleep and feel numb.

I awake and sense the world.
I sleep and lose myself.

I awake to awareness.
I sleep to frustration.

My awaking is belonging.
My sleeping is sickness.

I awake to understanding.
I sleep to dream.

I awake to contentment.
I sleep to extend my reach.

In waking there is no sleep.
In sleep there is no blindness.

To awake is to live.
To sleep is to exist.

I die.
Do I awake or sleep?
