He sings to me and I close my eyes. His voice takes me to another place. It's as though everything melts away when he's here with me. I can feel everything float off of my mind. All I can think about is me, him, and the music.
When he stops singing, I open my eyes. His face is unrecognizable. It's as though its pixelated so that I cannot see who he is. He is the one I've been looking for. The one I've needed.
"Who are you?" I whisper.
I reach towards him and he backs away. I try to grasp him once again, yet he continues to move. He doesn't want me to touch him.
"Please,"
"No, Valdosta. Not now."
