I live on the other side of the mirror. I don’t know the person who looks me in the eyes every morning and every evening before going to bed. She forces me out and drags me around with her. We fight all the time. And I have my little victories! I make her listen to music and daydream. I make her talk to and feel for characters in books, movies and cartoons. I make her play with little toys she finds ridiculous. I make her dare. Then she jumps into my side of the mirror and we wait for him. He always comes, eager and happy to join me in our world. He takes his work clothes off and we play in our world. My friend. My only friend. He likes sitting with me on my cloud, mixing the words and letters and laughing at the funny shapes they make. We take trips together to worlds unknown to anyone else. We see them, feel them, suffer in them and have fun in them. And most of the time, we dance. We dance to the music of our love. When we get tired, we lay together. On our cloud we hold hands, our essences shared – we are one. Sometimes I get sad and anxious because I know that I will have to go to the other side again. And my friend, my best friend jumps back and forth from one side to the other millions of times to help me survive. He brings pebbles from one world to the other for me. He puts them in my pockets so they would hold me and protect me from being blown away by winds of the other world. He crosses the border thousands of times, just for me. There are times when he stands on the very line, one eye in our world, the other in theirs. The master of art, he paints a painting with a path. He puts me on the path and watches me walk along. I follow the road laminated by the stars of his love. I know that I will be okay. |

Hi Lena, This is beautiful.. I want to know more about these characters....I am intrigued. Is this a mystical being from the beyond, an angel, maybe? Does the main character have multiple personalities...is this a dream? You have my interest :) |
