Confessions

Circling over head were the birds. I love just sitting here and watching them. I do this by myself mostly, but today I was with my good friend Dawn.

I look around at the peacefullness of it all, everything in its proper place, sun shining all around. But then I realize Dawn is missing.

She’s no where in sight. I call out for her, but there is no call back.

I love her, you see, and today I was going to tell her that.

There’s a noise, like rumbling of horses in a stampede, right behind me. I hear Dawn screaming for me to run. So, thats exactly what I do. I run as fast as my legs would carry me. I trip over something hard and and then silence overwellms me.

I think I’m dying.
Alone.
I hear myself saying “I love you Dawn” before everything goes still.
