dear reader
the nights can be short when you're asleep (if you are asleep). I often find myself lost in time as my dream overwhelms me. as images flood the dream sea, as i change costume and the characters around me come on stage or leave. the lights are a perpetual foggy
i sometimes feel like i am watching a film, finding myself jumping from one scene to another
but there is something real about my dreams. there is comfort in my dreams
the comfort that I do not need to see the end of it
dreams end abruptly and you wake up alive
assured that as real as our dreams can be, we wake up from them.
