Waking Up

Nothing feels right. Everything feels wrong. My limbs are slugish and my brain is half asleep.

I glance around my room, wondering where it all went; the glamour, the adventure, my love and my weapon.

Then I realize it was just a dream.

I was never really her.

I should cry. I want to cry, but instead I answer my parents and soldier on, like I always do.

Waiting and pleading for the next dream to come.
