"I'm
glad we decided to actually go through the gates. I couldn't have imagined
what was up there... But now, in life, when I drive by those white houses
on those hills I wonder what's going on in there... or if I've been
there..." David

It was night. I was in a car driving along a windy street. The car was filled with people. Friends I only knew from this dream. I felt comfortable with them, and I had known them for quite some time it seemed. We came to a huge ornate golden gate that hadn't been there before. The gates opened. I knew they shouldn't have. We went in. A windy, paved, road took us to the top of this small mountain. At the very top was a beautiful white building. Inside the building was a city filled with people, none of them aware of the world outside their doors. We walked to the back of the building, a large backyard with a view of the world below. We talked and looked at the world. It seemed unreal, as if it didn't exist anymore. But then I noticed Fiesta Mall. I said: "Isn't that Fiesta Mall!" That pretty much ruined the mood, because I'd seen something I wasn't supposed too. And we had to leave, quickly. Driving away from the city seemed weird because, as we got further away from it, I could look back, and see it, and the mountain it was on seemed like a small hill, and the city seemed like a small house, and there was only two girls out in front, tending to the fountains. And I wondered why I hadn't noticed it before... - |
