The Long Run Home

So this was a strange experience.....

Keep in mind this all actually happened.




I am running down the street, enjoying my I-Pod, listening to some Muse or Evanescence or Royksopp or something along those lines. I pass my friends house and think to myself, I should text her and tell her I ran past her house and house it reminded me of that one time we had to chase that one drunk girl down and take her home. Suddenly a shiver of fear runs down my spine. The trees around me close in. I'm in a forest.



The fear ascends into terror. I am in a past life. I am running from something. The forest looms around me. I snap out of the flashback only for an instant and then I'm back in. The thing is getting closer. I speed up, trying to lose my pursuer. I make it to a checkpoint. I cannot tell if the shivers I am experiencing are because of the cold or out of fear. The creature bears down on me.


I hit the light. It engulfs me in its warmth and safety. I know I cannot stay for long. I set off again, still feeling the beast's presence. however this time it is not as pressing. I make it home without a hitch.

A Lighter Touch

Part 1: A gentle sensation swept over me, much like being on a boat. A slight rocking that would almost put me to sleep. Then much like I was swimming, not like a drunk out of the mind swimmy feeling, but one of actually swimming. Then a ferris wheel motion. The feeling that gravity shifted to one side.


The space ship was ready for launch. The Bubble cockpit enclosed me. but the bubble failed and turned into a net which dragged me down. A blue net pulled me into another room. A man reach out for me, but I knew not to take his hand, well more out of non interaction I didn't take his hand.





Part 2: It no longer scared me. It no longer swept over me like death. I had learned how to manage it. The same reoccurance. What did it mean? It explained several things, none of which made sense. I struggled to understand. It showed me the future, the past, different versions of the present. What did it all mean?
