Living Corpse

I stand in front of the mirror
to see how I look when I sleep
I look different - like a corpse
but the flesh is still alive
a finger moves
ribs moving up and down
I am the same as I
though my senses do not belong to me
maybe I'm sleeping
because the lips in the mirror moves
my friendly voice says:
you look like a corpse
