As though my very soul had been chopped into pieces and tossed back into the world. It’s hard to be sure, I only know that I seldom awakened without feeling a terrible sense of loss. I believe it was these dreams that made me crave that elusive thing that is as great as true love. A place where I had powers my normal, everyday self could hardly imagine. Often it seemed, as I wandered the twilight realms of my unconscious, that I existed in another world, a world like our own and yet different, too. I got up in the morning, went to school, stared at my ex-boyfriend across the campus courtyard and imagined what it would be like to have him back in my life, went to the local library and sorted books for four hours, went home, watched TV, read a little, lay in bed and thought some more about Jimmy Kelter, then fell asleep and dreamed.īut I feel, somewhere in my dreams, I sensed I was different from other girls my age. I discovered what I was when I was eighteen years old, two days after I graduated high school. Silly, huh? Most people would say there’s no such thing. I want my life filled with the mystery of magic. Yet I have to wonder now if I want something else just as badly. Yeah, that was what I desired most, what people usually call true love. A guy who would never betray me, never lie to me, and most of all never leave me. Someone who would care for me more than he cared for himself.
