Abstruse

Flying dreams signify the wish to lighten up, become unburdened by worries, and break away from conventional norms, mores, and established ways of thinking.


I was convinced that I had to give up, for I had already spent an eternity by his side, patiently waiting for him to notice me. Yet all my efforts were futile, ‘cause no matter what I did, he just didn’t see me.

...

Saying goodbye to someone who doesn’t even know that you exist is pointless, but I did it anyway.

Still, I got no response. He was staring blankly ahead.

...

My footsteps echoed in the silence. I looked back over my shoulder at that face that I knew so well, and felt an onslaught of tears rising once more. All I ever wanted was to have a share of his world, but as it seems, the odds of that happening are fiercely against me.

My heavy heart felt lighter with every step. And at some point, I was weightless. Gravity had ceased to exist and I was just floating in the air, blissfully unaware of how weird this all was.

...

He is the epitome of everything that I want but I just can’t have. And a while ago, I was standing right next to him.

I should have known that I was just dreaming. :)
