It was a surreal feeling,
Being put under an anesthetic.
It felt like I was wide awake,
Yet completely numb to what would be painful.
I could feel my body telling me what I was feeling.
My mind letting me know the nerves are active.
Relaxed, yet aware.
Able to answer and respond to every question.
There were times I had to remind myself,
How to breathe, how to think.
But I don't think I'll ever forget that surreal surgery,
Hungry as I am, unable to eat.
