Hey, I had a Dream

I began to dream last night again.

I know many people dream every night, so what is the significance of this dream to me ?

You see, it was about you.

I asked you questions that you refused to answer unless we were in a dark room.

You said something about the judgement a person carries is visible in their eyes, so you asked me to close mine. Even though the room was black, I wanted answers so, I did that.

My first question was simple, but it took you the longest to respond… Who are you?…..I could hear the deepening of your breaths until the sound of your voice became distorted. I am what you dreamed of; the joys and pains of life. was your reply.

What do you mean?… You took another breath and replied, You begged for me with every other word out of your mouth, and now you have the nerve to ask me who am I, like you dont know me now; Whoo! You always want to play shy!

I am confused; all I want are straight answers, but you are responding in riddles, and whats with all the heavy breathing? Is my breathing bothering you? Or the fact that in the back of your mind you always knew, what I was to you.

I just want to know; why do love me, can we really grow? Foolish, Boy how can I love what was never mine, and how can something that is dead grow?

See another riddle! You refuse to answer my questions, and why is this room so cold? This room represents where the love used to go.

Enough is enough! I am in this all alone! It’s dark, and I am cold. So I choose now to open my eyes and view you with the eyes of my soul.

It was then that I saw the judgement you did not wish me to see.

I now understood why the answers were riddles.

This room was my heart, and the person in question was me.
