Dark outside...but even the Shifters know that it's just a distraction. It's feeding time in the world of Shadows and the Lost. Movement...something we have to catch...into the road, out of the road, into the road....watch out for the cars...big white truck...moves into the other lane. She's there, going around one side. He's there, watching, waiting, seeing who will give chase first. And it's her. Flush him out so she can tackle him.
A house. Sadness. He's a Shifter. Getting dressed. New pants. But...not afraid of the shadows...even the ones that eye him in hungry anticipation. Pants look like the blanket on our real bed...something about because the jeans are wet his have to be too.
But then...a home. She kisses me and slides on top. Just lays there. We're lost...lost forever in some spinning moment. Then writing. Saying we'll have to stop the mornings cuz she's going to be late for work. Someone beside her...me not me...saying that it's all ended now and there's no love there anymore. Her mind lost in a budget. And her saying uh huh uh huh.
Then let's go faggit. Confused. Grab the keys. It's bright outside today. Been waiting out here a while. Where is she? But then she's walking out the door and then she's in the car beside me. Forget somethin faggit? Don't like it when I call you that do you? And I know I've forgotten o lock the door. But something else says it's just the cell phone again.
She's crying. And saying I don't know. But maybe it's time that it's over. Cuz I don't love you anymore.All the laughter...the memories...they're not us...they're him.
Wake up...tears on the pillow. Tears on the face. Good lord my head hurts...I hate dreams...and I can't wait to be back in her arms.
