Ethereal

Matt Prosperi

I live my life and it feels like a half remembered dream.
Maybe that's the way.
Maybe that's the way it should be.
I am who I want to be all the time, because I'm always half imagining everything.
I'm tethered here, but my mind is free to leave whenever it wants.
Autonomy is the true goal in life.

That's what I have, and that's all I need.
