Sweet Nightmares

Yes its something i scribbled here and there a long time ago

 

A dark night dawned upon us as i found myself on a little boat decorated with little lights and me and my heart throb stood facing the wide open sea. we didn’t speak. didn’t move. didn’t blink. i soaked the sweet smell of the sea and let the wind into my hair. then we slowly climbed into the ice cold waters. we looked into each other’s eyes and just stayed as we were. an invisible element slowly but gradually pulled us apart and no matter how much i tried swimming, my body was possessed by the unknown.

he drifted apart, away and in the dark, desolate night, and i found myself at sea. with no one to save me.

 

i woke up to find myself on the floor near the entrance of my house door. my eyes were heavy with dried tears and my body ached. i felt empty, hollow, like something was missing.

 

yes. the boy i loved was a nightmare to me. just like every other nightmare, you end up either screaming or crying.

 

sleepless nights are more preferred to than this, don't you think?
