I'm An Open Book If You Care To Read Me
I dreamed of you last night. Rather unexpected really. I've been doing pretty well lately, not thinking of you much. I mean, I'm pretty much reminded of you daily, but for the most part I never really dwell on any thought that arises. I feel like thoughts of you are as natural as any thought of recognition. The sky is blue. That kitten is fluffy. I love that song. She loved that song. The grass is green. The leaves are gone. These lights are bright. She had the brightest smile. The walls are white....
And yet, I had such a realistic dream. In reality, I couldn't find my phone last night. So, I set my alarm on my iPad. Then I went to sleep.
So this morning, I kept trying to figure out how to shut the alarm off as it was going off. I tried and tried, never could figure it out. Then, suddenly, I stumbled upon a bunch of photos of you. Childhood photos, oddly. I couldn't figure out how the heck they'd gotten on iPad. I'd never seen any of them before. Yet, there you were! A little girl who was always happy being one of the boys, even though your mom put you in dresses sometimes. There was that great big smile, silly faces...just so happy. I finally willed myself to stop looking at them and figure out how to shut up that incessant alarm. Then, I woke up and realized I wasn't on the iPad at all. It was just laying there next to me. I'd slept through that alarm for over an hour!
I'm not sure why I dreamed of you. I do miss you...but that's nothing new.
I'd like to think you're incredibly happy these days, like the girl in those photos I dreamed of. Man I wish we could talk...but, what will be will be. And I guess sometimes what we hope for isn't always what is for the best.
I must get to sleep. I wonder if any dreams will come tonight? I really don't dream much these days. We shall see though. Goodnight world...and goodnight Flask, wherever you are. Probably just starting your day as I'm going to bed. I hope you have an amazing day...
