1. Blameless Ennui broken images
slipping into my subconsciousness
memories tormenting my dreams
a cold sweat
as I wake with a blazing fever
the pictures blur
receding back into the unknown
depths of a forgotten life
something pulling on my mind
begging me to remember it
I reach out with my thoughts
only to grasp at nothingness
it slipped away again
my head rests against the silken pillow
as my lashes caress my cheeks
the fragmented colors appear once more
making themselves known again
yet fading with the dawn
a certain aspect
triggers the scenes to my eyes
coming to me in my waking hours
but the moment I recollect
I have forgotten
not for everyone. Those people with imaginations that are beyond the norm, and minds that constantly move about and work without an end, can see anything, and everything, in the blink of an eye. Like Deja Vu, it's caused by the brain working far too fast for the rest of your senses to keep up. It could be a novel floating at the door to your consiousness waiting to flow from your hands to the world. It could be a million poems forming and breaking within the moment. It COULD be any of a thouand things, but this one thing is for sure; Whatever you do with it, and whatever comes of it, will be beyond greatness.
usually its only like this for those of my kind, but sometimes humans are born with those memories. it is not another planet but a different time, many thousands of years ago, before the first ancestor of humanity ever appeared. all humans have them but very few can even remember that they have them. only people like me can remember more fully what happened in the past.
