when we first met i pinched myself daily i had not yet mastered lucid dreaming but reality was just too unbelieveable i'd left the mossy rock's shade in exchange for a view of the lake fearing my skin would bake i retreated my biggest mistake i could not find my way back to the dark path so i sat in a field and let the sun beat my back brown to black, speckling white as i peeled uneven, unhappy, unmatched the shade had never truly hurt me in the past i became drawn by the unknown, by physical attraction though i may once again find my rock, the contentment i felt with it once is apt to end the lake whispers my name but i know it just wants to drown me in its depths
