For the one I love
by Kelsey
What's it called? Oh, that's right, the dark. It's everywhere. Seeping through my eyelids, when i seal them shut for some slumber. It's the sky I see when i lay out under the stars. The city alley in the dead of night. Which leaves me here. I'm walking down this alley I see a shadow. A dark shadow. An ominous dark shadow. Then, I see a hand. I'm not sure whose hand it is, but i yearn for it. But once I touch it, I would know it anywhere. Our hands are held there for just a moment. As soon as your hand squeezes mine, we are in a different place. I am in heaven, I think. If heaven is the place where you are with the one you love and no one could mean more to you than that person... then I am in heaven. I'm searching for your face. Looking for your smile. But, the light of life and love is blinding me. I NEED to find my eyes. Searching. Seeking. But Nothing. Now the light is dimming. Does that mean that life and love are dying and dimming too? Miraculously I find my eyes. Take in your beautiful face. Say those three words and you say "I have no doubt that I'll love you forever." I smile to myself. Remember the words I have been longing to hear. Then slip away to blackness. nothingness. death. ********* My eyes snap open. I stare at my ceiling. I hear that faint sound of my beeping alarm. But the only thing I hear now are my sobs. But I MUST stop. I'll lose it if I continue. As I think, I realize that it was a cruel, sick, dream that my unconscious should not have thought up. I crawl out of bed to face another day of your soul gleaming into mine and your face breaking my heart. |
