Are we alone?

Real short true story... this was me last night.

I could feel it… she was standing there watching me as I slept. Subconsciously I awoke to ask her if everything was ok but she didn't respond. I rolled over and looked up to see her shadow... she looked me in my eyes then walked away. Sometimes I forget I live alone but in reality we are never really alone are we?

Hi Aaron. I am not a great fan of prose in poetry, and so very seldom read it. You have written well and it was a pleasant read, but personally, I think that format lacks punch. I did love the wording, you got it right !!! just . . . I'm into structure, not reading books, I guess, alf

[AaronFreitas]

I hear ya buddy... I just had to get out what happened to me when I woke up... true story lol. Thanks for stopping by buddy

[alf]

Cool!! I'll keep reading your writes!!!!

[AaronFreitas]

Thank you buddy I appreciate that

[Dara]

Sometimes it is very hard to distinguish dreams from reality and this one sounded very distinct. I love your style of writing. It begs for more :-)

[AaronFreitas]

Thank you very much Dara... I appreciate your compliments and review :)

Very interesting story Aaron, well done! :)

A few years ago, I woke up in the middle of the night, opened my eyes, and I couldn't see my husband who was right in front of me. All I could see was a bright light that was soft to look at. I was so sleepy that I couldn't stay awake, but I remember thinking that I must remember what happened when I wake up.

Man that sounds scary... it's crazy how things can take control they way they do. Fool us into seeing what we don't know... at least I know this spirit lingering here is friendly... I think :) I appreciate your feedback Madison and your review... I appreciate it :)

[Madison Rose]

When I saw the bright light, I didn't feel afraid, I only felt that it was definitely something important for me to remember as I fell back asleep. My friend Gary from England told me that perhaps I had a temporary problem with my brain, who knows. My husband thinks it was a guardian angel :)

[AaronFreitas]

I'd much rather it be my guardian angel and not the brain problem lol...

[Madison Rose]

Lol, can you believe he even suggested that, what are friends for, but to scare a person! My brain is in excellent condition :D

[AaronFreitas]

haha you are right my friend

[andrew mitchell]

This is a spooky write that lingers after you read this, maybe me but has a punch!
