A dream I have every so often is a reunion with you.
We’re both 18.
It feels like we’ve found a spot where the film between lifetimes and dimensions is so thin that we’ve slipped through.
I look across to the passenger seat of my old car and there you are.
It feels like yesterday; your hug feels like it’s today. The ache I feel is gone and the piece missing from my soul has clicked back into place. I can breathe again. Never has any hug felt so good and I can’t imagine another one ever will.
Waking without you is either the most searing pain or like the calm after the storm. I never know which it’ll be and still I’d dream this dream one thousand times.
Maybe I already have.
Until the next lifetime, I’ll be seeing you; dreaming you.
Hope this finds you well,
