I saw him again, it was only for a brief moment but he was there. I heard his heartbeat as he stared at me in silence, the rhythmic bump bump that used to lull me to sleep, the noise still lingers in my ears even at this very second. He was crying as whispering words I couldn’t hear, it’s like we were underwater or drowning in his tears. I reached out to him granting salvation but he just disappeared, I wonder where he went, maybe back to the place we first met, Somewhere.

  I glanced in the mirror at my boring night clothes, a short, white, lacy nightgown and sighed, everything seemed to lose my interest lately, everyone’s so depressed in this town, I never wanted to move here but I had to, they died so my only option left was this depressing town with my aunt and her black cat. My only sense of salvation is my dreams, so perhaps tonight I'll dream of somewhere, where everyone is happy and there’s never a dull moment. I lay in my bed and shut my eyes welcoming the beautiful darkness as the black cat nestles by my feet.
