Spirit Whisperer
I am wrapped in the vivid dream of watching a door slam itself followed by the mattress giving way to the weight of someone not there at least to the naked eye I see something moving towards me - green mass - alive with energy reaching out as it approaches I am but a child in these dreams and I awaken to the screams of an old man sweat upon my brow stark straight in a panic until my heart stops racing these vivid nightmares come nightly now during and after sleep my thirst has deepened and they are aware my unbridled curiosity draws them to me I am both terrified and mystified by their presence Once relegated to the outside world, they have arrived at my home and their reluctance ended with a touch on my foot as it dangled precariously off the mattress edge each with a small electric charge it is a journey I choose because they choose me I believe I have passed the test for they have yet to disuade me I have learned but a sentence of a book yet unread I have barely whispered in these endless halls where I go from here I am not sure perhaps to shorten the distance between the physical and the after by relaying the word that this is not the end but rather the beginning of the immortal spirit
