I laid down in my bed, with my music playing softly, as usual before I would fall asleep. I let the lyrics flow through my body, before I drifted asleep.
When I woke, I didn't remember dreaming at all. It was the weirdest thing. The weirdest part is that I wasn't in my pajamas, I was fully dressed for the day. 'Oh well' I thought. I walked to the kitchen to get some breakfast. I was walking through the hallway, when I noticed something peculiar. There was two ghost like figures in my parents bedroom. I got closer to the door to hear what they were saying. Me being extremely nosey. Only to hear that a man was singing.
"By the time I was your age, I'd give anything to fall in love truly, was all I could think. That when I met your mother, the girl I my dreams, the most beautiful woman that I'd ever seen." He was singing to, what seemed to be, his son. "She said 'Boy, can I tell you a wonderful thing? I can't help but notice your staring at me. I know I shouldn't say this, but I really believe, I can't tell by your eyes, that your in love with me.' Now, son, I'm only telling you this, because life can do terrible things" he was singing so softly and delicate. Almost as if we was afraid to miss a note, for the sake of his son. I walked away slowly, afraid to make a noise and interrupt a clearly important moment.
Suddenly, a bit freaked out, I went for a Jon around the town. I was running, when in the corner of my eye I saw a couple. the same man that was in my house, and a beautiful young woman, but this time the man seemed much younger and very joyful. Almost as if it was a flashback from his memories. I ran closer to them being as sly as possible. I decided to sit on a park bench. As soon as I sat down the bench squealed making creaking and piping noises. The two stopped in their conversation and looked in my direction, but they seemed to see right through me. They both had confused looks on their faces. I got up and walked closer. They still seemed to look through me. I waved my hand in front of the boys face. They couldn't see me at all. That's good, now I don't have to sneak around anymore. Thy started talking again and that's when I noticed they were in song.
"Girl, can I tell you a wonderful thing? I made you a present with paper and string now open with care. I'm asking you please, you know that I love you, will you marry me?" he sang softly agin with hope in his eyes instead of hurt and sadness.
This time the girl sang.
"Boy, can I tell you a terrible thing? it seems that I'm sick, and I've only got weeks. Please, don't be sad now I really believe, you were the greatest thing that ever happened to me." The boy fell to his knees and cried and sobbed at the girls feet. A tear rolled down my cheek. this was so much to take in. I don't know what was happening. I sprinted to my house tears rolling down my face like a tsunami in my eyes. I wished so badly that the two, father and son, were still there, in my parents room. I wanted to know how the father told his son this tragic story. I busted through the door and sprinted up the stairs. I went down the hallway into the room. I slithered through the opening in the door, not afraid to walk in because the couldn't see me.
"So don't fall in love, there's just too much to lose. If your given the choice then I bet you to choose, to walk away, walk away, don't let her get you. I can't bear to see the same happen to you. Now, son I'm only telling you this because life can do terrible things." He was singing with so much passion. Almost angry for not savoring the moment, the time when the mother of his son and the love of his life was still alive. A single tear rolled down his cheek. He couldn't be telling his son not to fall in love. It was, in fact his fathers biggest dream when he was young. I fell to the floor and sobbed.
My eyes flashed open in suprise. It was all just a dream, based on my favorite song Terrible Things by Mayday Parade. I didn't feel the true emotions and feelings coming from the song, until now. I truly feel how sad he was, and could even let myself shed a few tears in my sleep. I would always remember that dream. Savoring each moment with my loved ones until the day I die.
