Dear someone listening in the shadows...

I hate naps. I always get that hangover-y feeling whenever I wake up from one. This afternoon though... It was a little different. I mean, I still felt like I had a million drinks and I wanted to regurgitate my guts out, but that terrible physical feeling was overcome by an overpowering sense of joy. A joy that was brought on by your presence in my dream.

I dreamt of you this afternoon. I may not know who you are exactly as we haven't met yet, but I know you.

"I know you, I've walked with you once upon a dream."

Sleeping Beauty. Haha. I guess I'll never stop believing in fairytales. Just when I thought that I've become this fantastically cynical person, I dream of you and all at once I am elated.

What you were and what you did in the dream didn't help any... You were a prince. My knight in shining armor standing in the corner just watching me. Surprising me with flowers and balloons and gifts. And while all of these things were being delivered unendingly and while everybody kept wondering where all of it came from, why, and from whom... I saw you. You were there, standing in the corner of the room, smiling coyly as if you were the smartest guy on earth. Laughing lovingly at my childish reactions. Hiding, not knowing that even if you were to hide at the very end of the earth, I would still find you.

Interestingly, in the dream I woke up from the dream of you, which turned out to be another dream of you, and another, and another... Different stories with different turns. All with the same ending.

You and me.

The funniest thing was that neither one of us were expecting each other. Neither one of us were prepared for something as big as that. But the moment your eyes locked into mine, we both knew there was no escaping you and me. It was/is/will be beautiful and utterly inevitable.

And so wherever you are and whoever you might be... I'll see you soon.


As Always,
D.
