Dreams
Swimming pools carved into mountains I’ll never get to swim in, teeth breaking up into little bits, flying alongside cars over the freeway, I always dream, every single night…
I’d rather take a deep breath, 1 2 3 4 inhale, 1234 hold, 1 2 3 4 exhale, 1234 hold, repeat infinitely.
“And one asks oneself where are one’s dreams? And one shakes one’s head and says how rapidly the years fly by! And again one asks oneself what has one done with one’s years? Where have you buried your best days? Have you lived or not? Look, one says to oneself, look how cold the world is growing! Some more years will pass, and after them will come gloomy solitude; then will come old age trembling on its crutch, and after it misery and desolation. Your fantastic world will grow pale, your dreams will fade and die and will fall like the yellow leaves from the trees…. Oh, Nastenka! you know it will be sad to be left alone, utterly alone, and to have not even anything to regret—nothing, absolutely nothing … for all that you have lost, all that, all was nothing, stupid, simple nullity, there has been nothing but dreams!”
Fyodor Dostoyevsky, White Nights
