She opened her eyes but couldnt see anything. It was like there was something covering her eyes. Frantically, her hands flew to her face and felt a thin piece of material wrapped around her head...like a bandage...but her sensitive fingers didnt feel any wound. She found the beginning of the fabric and started peeling it away.
Finally being able to see, she takes in everything around her. The full moon illuminates everything around her in silvery light. There's an apple tree with rotting apples littering the ground beneath it. A lake in the distance shows the sky in its waters. Her delicate fingers feel her bulging pregnant belly as the breeze blows her skirt around her knees.
A smile creeps across her lips and she throws her head back and laughs.
Picking up one of the decayed apples, she brings it to her lips and takes a bite.
Blood erupts from it and pours down her chin...staining her lips.
Laughing again, she tosses the apple into the water and starts twirling...round and round...pieces of grass are stuck to her bare feet.
The wind whips her silver blonde hair around her face as she falls to her knees, dizzy from her dance.
"Save me" She whispers.
And then the night fell around her. Stars colliding with the earth. The big cookie moon drops into the water. Sky and ground melt into one...causing a swirling gray chaos.
I jumped awake, panting, as if i was exhausted.
I dont control what my mind lets me see. Its kind of scary.
Forever dancing in your eyes,
-J.C.
