The end of another end


The end of an end. Again
My brain is filled with nothingness. Noise so loud that it’s jarring.  I try and think of all the things I will miss about Melbourne but all I can see are images. Why won’t anything concrete appear so that I may acknowledge it. My eyes are welling up  again and this time I’m not quite sure which memory has opened up the tap. Is it 2 Pearce Street? Is it Deakin? Is it you?
My heart is paralyzed in fear that if it resumes beating normally I may collapse in utter disbelief that the past two months were actually reality as opposed to the dream I’ve forced myself to believe it was. I haven’t woken up yet .I’m still in REM. I’ m struggled in consciousness to dream that same dream again but I know its impossible. The noise won’t let me sleep anymore.
My body longs for the warm embraces that left me a few hours ago for an indefinite time.Best part of my dream without a doubt. The part of it that wanted me to never wake up.

Then I woke up.
