10 December 2012
I remember sitting on a bench doing nothing. Absolutely nothing. There was a field with no people, a sidewalk with no one walking, a sky without a sun.
Nothing.
As I lift my head up slowly you pass by, nearly breaking your head trying to see me. A dark figure next to you.
I don't see you. I look right through you as you pass by, the sidewalk still bare. Your face becoming more and more blank.
Then I realize I haven't thought about you very much.
In the confines of my mind I ask myself, am I finally done with it? Is my subconscious and body finally agreeing with my conscious mind? Or has my plan worked?
I stare into the nothingness as my best friend comes by and sits by me, jumping from a warp followed by my other best friend.
They sit beside me and I just stare as if I didn't notice them. The skinnier one quickly yet hauntingly gets up and leaves, leaving me with the other.
I turn to the one who stayed and watched her, her normal awkwardness, the blank uneasy stare, the unsureness, the uneasy pose, the look in her eyes that told me she didn't know what to do but was willing to stay by me.
I smile a little and slowly fall towards her, I felt the life leave my body as I watch from above.
The pod lifeless that fell on her lap as she watched me above, apparently undisturbed by the body that lay on her lap. Was she able to see me?
She started to fade as a light behind me glow bright. Her as well as my body were engulfed slowly by the shine and once they were no more, I turn and go towards the light.
I feel myself lift up ever so slowly and I close my eyes. I feel myself lift higher and higher into the light, my thin eyelids no match to eradicate it. I feel myself fall a bit then become smothered by a soft, warm substance engulfing my body...
... And I wake up...
