Watching purple hearts rain down on my I looked down on the ground and half heartedly smiled. The place was lit up in white for just a brief minute and the boom was never heard. Or I might have just been deaf. My heart shattered and the plastic purple hearts flooded my room.
Where did they come from? How am I falling?
I woke up in a land almost like one from fantasy books. Unusual creatures and exoctic scenery. Nothing like what you would see while intoxicated. Vivid colors filled the lucious landscape and I was almost awed. Everything seemed so beautiful that for a breif moment I forgot everything about myself. I laid down in the black-green grass and stared up at a sapphire sky. I wondered where could I be. I drifted off to sleep only to be awoken by a constant buzzing around twilight. After a qaint fight with myself about trying to catch more sleep I opened my eyes and looked up. Above me hovered many little queer insects unlike any I have seen. Dragonfly like wings but with an iridesent twinge in them. Their bodies were smaller and were un-porportionate to the elaborate wings on their backs. Fur was wrapped like bracelets around their long gangly legs and when they flew past me a pleasent floral scent enlightened my senses.
Slowly I stood up not certain if they would sting or bite and walked off to the closest body of water. It was black as night but lit up with various stars and colors similar to Northern lights. The water was like a mirror and undisturbed, not a ripple graced it. Kneeling down I placed my lips to its cool wetness and drank. Suddenly my mind was flood with tormenting images that flashed too fast to be seen. I sat up shaking from unknown fear and calmed my breathing down. I saw my face in those images. I started wondering if there was an explanation in my being in this oddly glorious place and debated on taking another drink.
Placing my lips to the water I took in the cool water again. Those horrifying images scattered and embedded myself in my brain. I watched and felt it all. Malicious eyes, cords, gasping for life, trying to breathe. I say purple hearts in white light again. A hand sprinkling them over me and a flashlight that shined watching my life... my life..
I pulled myself away from the water and closed my eyes. My body felt like I was falling again; but I did wake up again in the light of my exotic world covered in purple hearts.
