me

Hey big guy... what d ya have there in your hand?? a little boy gives me a sweet smile, turns away and walks. hey there .. wait up ... wont you show me what secrets you hold in your little hand... he looks at my eager face and smiles again ... a beautiful glow on his cheeks... i see mischief in his eyes. he turns away again and starts to walk faster than before.... i walk behind him, half expecting him to stop, but he doesnt... i lengthen my stride... he begins to run ... the sky clouds up ... dark rain clouds. suddenly there is a loud clap of thunder... the heavens burst .... little boy has disappeared.... i cant see too much in front of me .... lost... the rain soaks my shirt... i begin to run in his direction... rip off my shirt sticking to my back and throw it to the ground ... little boy where are you?? ... i look everywhere... a fog collects in front of me... my chest breathing heavily... i slow down ... i can hear little footsteps on the puddly ground... hey there you are... but where??? i cant see anything... something brushes past me ... he is playing games with me ... bey!! where are you ?? deafening silence... i walk with my head down ... where did he go ? the clouds begin to clear... a valley emerges... lush green .... rolling meadows for as far as the eye can see.... in the distance a crimson forest stands... inviting.... blue skies till the horizon... i see a grand old oak tree in front of me standing lone in the meadow... i look closer... i see all my loved ones .. friends and family... living their day out in the shade of the benevolent oak ... little girls swingin in the tree... boys screamin ... a warm feeling comes over me. hey!! whos this.... its the little boy.. resting against the tree trunk.. eyes shut... i run up to him ... hoping i dont loose him again ... hey little boy wake up ... ... wont you tell me who you are? ... he opens his eyes... again just smiles at me... a wierd feeling fills me up.. a feeling of familiarity... little boy dont i know you ... arent you ... !! yes you are!! just then i realised ..... the little boy was none else ... he was just me....
