Alone again.
I’m alone again,
To the harsh world.
I’m reminded again that I have no one by my side.
I’m alone.
I watched the gentle cool breeze which blew around me and at my hair.
I tucked my hands into my coat pocket sighing heavily.
I sighed deeply.
How’s he?
Fine??
Not fine??
Haven’t heard his voice or seen his face in four days now,
I had to persuade Riele to take away every claim about her father down from the press.
I had to bear a witness of seeing my parents die a natural de.ath just to let Carson go.
Just to let me speak to him but to no avail.
I heaved.
I closed my eyes briefly and recalled his warm smile as he held me up as I danced… Wriggling myself in his arms,
His soft arms which was so clever in catching me each time I made a dance.
I gulped.
Can I dance?
Can I save him?
What if I can’t?
But I have to save him.
I placed my two palms together in a mood of prayer and then stood on my toes,
I wasn’t thinking about the pains it might cause,
All my whole thoughts were on how to save Carson.
My dance depends on it,
I began to dance to an unimaginary rhythm,
*Trust me…. *his voice echoed into my ears and I danced harder,
I never knew what I was doing but I couldn’t think about anything else,
With my eyes closed,
It felt Carson was holding me once again,
It felt like I was in an unimaginary world with Carson alone.
I imagined him grabbing me before my toes touched the ground and he ran about trying to catch me at each of my wild clever jumps.
I spun my self around still standing on my toes and his words filled my ears:
Even though he was not with me…. He was here with me somewhere in my heart.
*You can do this…. *
*I’ve got you…. *
?Look me in the eyes,
?Tell me what you see!
?Perfect paradise!!
?They remain as if,
?I wish I could escape,
?I don’t wanna fake,
I spun faster making a slight jump into the wind.
My mind kept mumbling,
C-a-r-s-o-n…it was the music I was dancing to.
Are they torturing him?
Gaht me dancing harder.
Is he okay gaht me moving in my dance steps,
My eyes was shut tight.
Tears streamed down my face.
All I’ve been through don’t scare me,
What scares me??
Losing Carson is like a bad nightmare to me.
Its one dream that I wish it won’t ever come true.
I recalled the first day he gave me a piggy ride on his back.
I flipped into the air,
I thought I was a rope coz of the way I was moving like I have no bones.
I spread out my hands to the wind,
Maybe I should fly… I thought as I stretched one of my legs to its full length,
Even my toes were pointed up too,
I used the other one to support myself.
Carson….
I began to raise myself up and bringing myself down,
I didn’t know what was happening,
But I found myself holding onto a rope and twisting around it,
Then I heard noises,
Murmurs.
I didn’t mind.
My feet touched a soft slim surface but it didn’t mind,
I held onto the rope dancing,
I jumped into the air and found myself again in another direction,
?Oh my gosh!
?Dmn!
?She’s dancing!!!
?That was massive!!
?She’s so super flexible!!
?Nathan must see this!!
?How did she learn to dance this good once again?
?Riillleeey!!
?That BALLERINA is back again!!
?She even dances more than before!!
It was then I opened my eyes to see myself so far away from where I stood before.
I was surrounded by people who had their phones to my face.
I was blinded by the white flashes of their phones.
How did I get so far away from where I was before?
I looked at my legs?
I was barefooted?
How??
I wriggled my toes cuz of how cold the ground was and then brought my face to the crowd again.
I searched for an exit but there was none,
