parallel

he wakes up with a start
heart racing
body covered in a damp sweat
what? where am I?
realizes he's in his own room
settles down
drifts back to sleep

random images
him running
him in the sun
him in different situations

always the same
wakes up
body aching
mysterious bruises appear on his body
unexplained cuts

but always
in his own room
who is he?
theres is many to choose from

each one is different
but each one has his face

Well if you guessed, it's about parallel worlds, with the world crossing into each other in the dream realm, I think there's more than one version of each of us out there, each created when we did or did not do something, each action creating a divergent parallel world... who knows? one can dream right?
