I didn't want to sleep, I wanted to be there with Paul. But I had to close my eyes somehow, and I knew that my dream was fading.
"I don't want to leave you", I whispered, but I saw him vanishing from my eyesight.
Don't leave me, Paul. I would give my life for you. I would
give my world to be with you, and now you are leaving me. Don't
leave me... My tears were drowning my sight, and once again I
reached my hand to touch him. And he was going away, like a cloud
in the night. I tried to come closer, but he was slipping away.
I just could hear him say one last word,
one last breathed secret we had shared before I was gone from
his life and he was gone from mine.
"...forever", he said. It was all I could hear. Forever. Then, I woke up again. And I was alone in my room, and the sun was hitting the window. I was alone, again in my world, lost and lonely. And I looked around, for a moment, trying to remember what happened. He was there. I could feel him near. But I couldn't see him. I couldn't see him ever more. I was gone from his life. Paul...I would give anything he asked, for one more night. One closer life.
I met my witch friend some days after. She asked me how the dream was and I told her I would give all I had for one more night. She sighed and said she couldn't do the same thing twice. That was the deal. It was the chance of a lifetime and it couldn't be repeated.
I would give all I had to him. And now I had him in my mind. I closed my eyes and tears ran from my eyes. Paul. I would wish I was dead in the moment I looked at you. I wish I was dead the moment I was touched by you. I had you but now I am lost without you. All I wish is a closer life...
