Traveling into the Night
In an alternate universe I fly out my window with Peter Pan.
It happened so sudden I didn't have time to think.
As soon as he appeared in my window I knew who he was and what he wanted.
How could I resist his charm and his persistence?
I knew deep down that I could not.
So I went.
With my first leap out my window, promises of fulfilled hopes and dreams brush against my skin.
As we fly across the starry sky I know in my heart that this moment in time is right where I want to be.
The goals I have set for myself creep into my mind as the night passes on.
As much as I try and try to push those goals out of my head I know I must go home.
Not at this exact moment for I am enjoying every second of our flight.
Peter Pan hardly says a word as we fly and I know it must be because he knows I have to go back.
I say to him that I didn't want the night to end and he says to close my eyes.
I close my eyes and drift off to sleep.
When I wake I hear the sound of my alarm and I am sad for the night ended too soon.
I wonder if it was even real.
In an alternate universe I fly out my window with Peter Pan.
