'Make a Wish'

[strangeclouds]

I once dreamt I was walking down the road to my house really early in the morning. The sky was a light purple- almost white. Thousands of dandylions stretched across the horizon, along both sides of me.
'I should make a wish,' I thought.
But my attention diverted when a large, gleaming black car suddenly whizzed by. All of the flowers seemed to explode- making their seeds cover the entire sky. I had lost my vision- but at the same time, I could see- everything.
I didn't want to blink- it seemed a waste of a moment, if only for a second- it was one more, to feel alive.
Miles ahead of me, the car was a tiny black dot, abandoning an angry white sea that calmed at my ankles. The seeds fell around my feet, they covered my shoes and left me alone again. I quickened my pace to catch up to the rest still hanging in the air.
My eyes darted back to that all-too-familiar sky, reflecting itself in my pupils to bask in it's own beauty again.
'I've missed you,' It seemed to mock.
I frowned, stopping to stare at the waves in the distance.
I could see again-
but then I realized...
That I didn't want to-
So I ran faster.

Seems like having dreams about what goes on in your conscience, trust me, you don't want o find out the end of those things. ANyways, after reading this I like how you can go into metaphor eally good like that while at the same time, very very nice work, I love your stuff.
