I'm Real

Open your eyes and there I am,
right in front of you.
I'm as real as they come.
You don't believe me do you?
Stretch out your arm and
just run your fingers through my hair.
Feel the silkiness as the strands
just slip through your fingers.
Take your hand and gently
caress my face.
See I told you,
I'm real!
Draw me close and hold me tight.
Don't you dare let me go!
These arms of mine clasp around you
more tenacious than an octopus.
