How and Why and...
Dreams.
Complicated, yet infinitly simple
How
How can I have a dream about two people I've not seen in seven years
And not know what to say
My gosh
There are so many questions I had brimming at my tongue
And yet all I could do was stand there and let my mind wander
Wander just like it does in real life
And I could do nothing to stop it because
We are subject to the mind when it comes to dreams
And no matter how unfair it is
That's the way it works.
I long to see them again
To finally get to ask my questions
Questions I have had seven years to form, yet
They caught in my throat the second I had my oppportunity to ask
Questions like
Do you remember who I am?
Do you remember the last time you saw me?
Because I remember the last time I saw you
Even though I was only young.
Then you'd say
"You've always been exceptional"
And I'd laugh
But I know you're right because my memory
Is good as an elephant's.
But then there are other questions
Questions like:
How can I keep my faith strong?
Everyone says to pray and read my Bible
But I want a more concrete answer
And I know you'd give it.
And finally I want to know
Why?
Why are you so good at everything?
You fuffilled your purpose so now you're gone
I get that
But did you have to die so soon
Before I could adapt
Before I caould have enough courage to make friends
You had to leave
Leave me alone
With no one to talk to
No one to make me feel
Like I was not an outsider
And that I may have been somewhat normal
And then there was no one to talk to about
Theories and Thoughts
And you would have been so accepting
I know you would have
People still talk about the both of you
And you are not forgotten in my mind either
I want you to know that
That you are not
And will never
Be forgotten
And that Our Entire Family
Is stronger
And closer
And even though you're not here
We feel your loss
All the time.
