My dream from last night…
In my sleep last night…
I opened my eyes…
and I was inside a massive mansion—
I mean huge…
The longest hallways one could imagine…
It was dark…
but enough light creeping through
that I was able to see…
and exist in it…
It was a kind of quiet
I’ve never heard before—
I was totally alone…
Absolutely terrified…
but I kept myself together…
I didn’t know what else to do…
So I just started walking…
down the hallway…
pausing at times…
looking into the rooms…
There was something familiar
about some of them…
but I don’t know what…
And then the lonely started hitting me
hard…
A kind of lonely I’ve never felt…
As if I were the only living thing
in existence—
Absolutely nothing else…
no one to talk to…
no one to pray to…
nowhere to go…
no place to call home…
A cosmic lonely—
Where you are it…
in the entire universe…
The feeling was unbearable…
and the emptiness I felt
can’t be compared to anything…
Just utterly lost…
…into nothing…
