X
It was you
that silently jolted me awake
in the dead of night.
Cold sweat dripping,
sixth sense buzzing.
It is you.
I know it’s you though we’ve never met.
I had no idea of you until I woke up 10 seconds ago.
The room is empty but all I sense...
Is you,
out there.
My empty mind knows it
and the silence is overloading my awareness,
triggering flight response,
raising goosebumps and hackles.
Fear, but it’s fear of myself. What am I about to do?
Tearing off the sheets I run to the living room and throw open the big curtain.
But I already know what I’ll see.
You
You’re in that metal object hovering 100 yards away
radiant, beautiful.
My breath is gone and this is the moment I feared.
Without a second thought, I start running.
Wait, was this what I wanted?
I’ve never run so fast.
Wait for me
I’m coming.

When is memory true?
How do you know when you're not awake?
It was definitely a dream,
or...
