A dream

I was in a small town in Italy, walking down the street with a good friend of mine, we were just talking about random things, looking at the houses as we passed... Out of nowhere I looked at her and said "Hey, wanna go on a date some time?" She looked at me, a ghost of a smile on her lips, and a look in her eyes that can't be described. "I had to say it, get it off my chest, so maybe I could get a bit of sleep one of these nights." As we kept walking, she took my hand in hers and led me to a small house where we could hear some old music playing; we went inside and just started dancing (a Foxtrot, of all dances). Time stood still in that moment, amd it seemed as if everything were dancing to the rhythm of a Foxtrot - the music, Us, the villagers outside... it was beautiful.

I don't have beautiful dreams that often (or I don't remember them). I'm very happy I had this one.

Stall

I'm falling into that pit of despair
and the only way I know how to deal with it
effectively
is to write
But I keep stalling
waiting
finding ways to procrastinate
maybe they'll come back in time
and I can put my mask back on
and fake my way through
without ever dealing with you
my demon
