[2017]
Awake, I open my eyes.
Blood is all over my hospital gown,
Dripping from my mouth.
In front of me is something.
No, someone.
A creature of the stars.
Their eyes are so soothing their smile so calming,
Yet intimidating.
Like a small dagger covered in frosting.
Like a small bow covered in blood.
I think of these things.
They remind me of someone.
Was it the person in front of me?
I have no idea.
I have no clue.
All I can do is wait for an answer.
I get impatient.
"Who are you?" I manage to choke out, blood oozing everywhere.
My mouth overflows.
The walls turn red.
I can't help but imagine myself gone.
But they only stay like that for a moment.
They look intently into my eyes,
Our gaze too strong to be broken.
"Not who you're looking for."
And with that, they walk away.
I scream, needles puncturing my skin.
I reach out my arm with the rest of my strength.
Then...
Blackness.
