In my dreams I was drifting in and out of consciousness
I tried to open my eyes but all was blank

All was quiet, too quiet.

I struggled to open my eyes once more

The images turned into a multi colour surrealistic world
Silver rivers and golden grass, pink horses and rainbow colours
Fairies, devas, angels and guardians
They were all surrounding me
and I never felt so beautiful

In my cotton white garment, I asked why I am here
And why is my hair long and gold?
They told me, you have came back to heavens
and we are waiting for you to join us back here all along

I never felt so happy to feel accepted once more
I smiled like an angel and held their hands
While they smiled back merrily back at me
Telling me they are here to take me back

For my mission is not complete.

I tried to open my eyes once more
And I saw my room fill up my view
White walls, wooden frames, a plastic table
I tried to move my hands but I could not

For hours I stared at the ceiling
Wondering if I could ever move my body again
For I was motionless and still
And wishing I was in paradise once more

Wondering what if I don’t wake up one day
Will I be missed by others?
Wondering if there was anyone who loved me at all
For I always felt alone in this world

One against the world, that is how I feel.

Using every inch of will power I had, I feebly moved my hands
and dialed the emergency number with my shivering fingers

Save me… I still want to live
