My Nineteenth Post.
I had a dream…
I was driving. My foot was flooring the pedal, and the road ahead of me started to thin…
At the end of the road, they split into two directions, left and right.
I never even touched the brake.
I didn’t budge the wheel.
I went careening over a ledge, and below me, a waterfall… It reflected jade and sapphire against the rocky cliff it spewed from…
I fell, faster and faster, reaching my terminal velocity…
My heart leapt into my throat…
Both hands were white-knuckled on the wheel as the chassis of my car crashed into the large body of water below…
Water poured in from the cracks of the windows, and everywhere around me was glowing green… The sun shone through those jade and liquid lenses as the cabin slowly filled to the brim.
I stared upwards, through my windshield, into the sky, as my eyes got heavier and heavier…
The air was liquid…
When I woke up… I had a smile on my face. That feeling of finality, of true peace and rest… Of quiet and calm… Care-free, liberating oblivion. Everything melted away… I felt relieved… I felt happy. Overjoyed, even.
But it was just a dream…
….
… I think I’m sick.
