I lay in bed restless most nights. Thinking about what I’ve seen roaming around the city. Not understanding what exactly “it” is. I toss back and forth trying to not think about it, but that’s all I can do. I think about this thing, this creature of some sort? All I’ve seen are tentacles. But what’s attached to these tentacles? Surely, something has to be attached to it. It could be an alien spaceship for all I know. Whatever “it” is, I can’t stop thinking about it.
“Where, wh-where am I? I don’t recognize this area. Am I, am I in space?
I must’ve finally fallen asleep and now I’m dreaming. This is beautiful. I’m in space. I can see a striped purple and blue planet. The sky is dark blue and purple with the glimmering stars. The ground is like the moon, white with some gray, and a little dusty when you walk. Gravity still exists though, lame. How does my mind come up with such a dream? Things that I’ve never even seen in my life? I mean yeah, similarities to things, but it’s like I created a whole world in my dream.
This reminds me of how the world is today. Only, I’m in space? That doesn’t make any sense. Or does it? I mean, our world has fallen apart, but it’s still beautiful with the neon colors. The rain isn’t so bad either along with the city lights still shining. Why am I dreaming of our world only in space form though? Am I..am I having a vision?
Woah, that was a strange dream. I don’t quite understand why I dreamt all of that? Oh well, it was probably nothing. I looked out the window and I can see how similar the world is to my dream. This area..it looks very familiar. Wait…This is where I was standing in my dream! What the fuck?! But, but, why? What does all of this mean? I don’t understand.
In that moment, I decided to look up into the sky and I saw it.
A striped purple and blue planet.
