Last night I had a dream. A vivid dream. A very strange dream. Here are the background circumstances to how the dream manifested. I have a friend who sometimes posts (here on FB) that he has free time for anyone who wants a tattoo done (Drew on you) Then I also have another friend who sometimes plays her new songs to me over skype. She plays her guitar and sings happily away awhile I enjoy the beautiful harmonies and wonderful poetry she sings. ( live audience participation :) ) Then last of all I have another friend that I dont see much because of distance but am always please to read how she is doing and enjoy viewing the photos she posts. Sadly its been a couple of years since our paths crossed and our distance has grown over the time she has been overseas. Well this morning I woke up at 3:30am thinking what a strange dream I had. In that dream my long ago friend (that now lives overseas) posted a message on FB saying that she had time to spare if anyone wanted to come to her work. The assumption was that it was a request to come for a coffee as this was our last meeting before she went away. Even tho I didnt message her back we both knew that it was the right time to get on skype where I watched her dance and sing with happiness in her voice. Before I could blink, I was sitting outside a cold and windy establishment in the middle of London waiting for my order of hot tea to be served while watching her (my friend) sitting at another table all cold and huddled up on her own waiting for someone, just someone to come and say hello (or so I thought) but nobody did. She uncomfortably stood up and while trying to keep warm in her thick jacket she slowly made her way back up the stairs and dissapered through a dark doorway. The waitress looked at me and said you knew her a long time ago didnt you she then said times are tough here lately and even with all of her beauty she still cant even find one customer. I woke up with a feeling of sadness. I was sad even before I turned on the television this morning.
