You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one.Today was totally crazy. I have almost no idea why we actually bothered to go to school. S28 had an attendance of six people. S29 had an attendance of five people. My class, the one where the least people pon school normally (or so I thought), had an attendance of ten. Hence, despite having three out of four members of our group present, we played the day away. Even the teachers joined in for a game or two! Asshole Taidi and Bridge is the love. Though I'm still not that keen on Bridge since I'm not good at the game. Yes, I'm a sore loser. Sue me. Anyway, here's a piece of work that I found off the internet. I think it's quite a pretty scene. Tell me what you think of it! (: A wooden bench, on the beach, overlooking the sea. Me in my jeans, inseparable from them, even as I feel the sand seep in. She’s sitting next to me. Beautiful as the sunset is, I’m unable to take my eyes off her. I just prefer the sight. She’s the one who’s looking out at the sea, into the sky, the dusk creeping over. I wonder if she knows that I’m right next to her, that I’d do anything for her to turn to me and tell me that she knows that this is heaven for me. I have a sudden realization. “This is a dream,” I say, “None of this is real.” “Of course it’s a dream,” she replies, turning to me, finally. “But whoever said that it isn’t real?” I take her hands in mine, and unable to resist any more, embrace her. I feel her warmth against me, but I know that it’s a figment of my imagination. The warmth is my own, conjured in my brain, meant to trick me. It doesn’t really matter any more. I’m happy this way. I never want to wake up. “Don’t ever forget this feeling,” she says, “Don’t ever stop wanting it.” And suddenly, my arms are empty. She is no more. I wander the beach, searching for her, wondering where she went. I follow the coastline, for an hour, a second, a year, a day. Time fades away with the waves, battling eternally with the sand. The sun sets, and the night comes. It never goes away. *** My eyes open, and I check the clock by my bedside. I’ve set it to be ten minutes fast so that I wake up early. It doesn’t matter; I’m always late anyway. 10:52. I feel the late morning sun through the window, heating up my face. I shift, and let it warm my pillow instead. What day is it? Does it even matter? I stretch my arm, twisting it round to reach for my phone. I read through a message that I received during my fitful sleep; I’m supposed to be meeting a friend soon. I force myself out of bed and into the shower. I used to shower with the temperature close to boiling to wake me up in the morning. It doesn’t any more. It just heats up my skin and washes away the dirt, but the lethargy remains. I think about the dream I might have had during the night. I have a flash of a sunset in my mind, but then it eludes me. I shrug it off and get out of the shower to towel myself off. genevieve ♥ 0 comments |
