***The track in hand is kind of needed if you want to follow. www.youtube.com/watch?v=imamca… ***




I press the skip button. My eyes look down to the small screen of my cell phone. The Shuffle option in my mp3 starts to play a song. The title is "Dream is Collapsing" by Hans Zimmer. One of my favourite composers.
As I hear the guitar playing, I recall that my bed is right behind me, and close my eyes. Violins quietly heard in the back. I know the music will intensify, but am focusing on the now.
0:23
Falling into a dream state now, but still awake. I try to time it perfectly with the crescendo that will follow. I slowly lean backwards as the music continues.
0:33
I fall
0:35
Upon impact of the bed, it shatters, and I plunge into the sky. I continue to free-fall into the clouds, the music now in an intense state. I can feel my brown hair flowing fast from the air that moves it, for I do not open my eyes. It seems that there is no limit. I continuously fall through the bright sky while the music continues to intensify. Soon, clouds move away and a city awaits to break my fall below. I cannot see it, but I know it is there. I do not panic. I try to level myself out so that my feet point to the ground.
1:23
I slam into the street, the pavement cracks and creates a crater. I slowly get up, still not raising my eyelids. I can somehow feel the buildings around me. Big and small. The music begins to wind down, like two enemies staring each other down before they charge to ensue their epic battle. While it does, I bring my arms far from my side, but not so high as so my hands are level with my hip. I raise my head to the sky.
1:35
Glass bursts from the building walls. Fire hydrants explode. Street light bulbs pop. Pieces of metal and concrete are ripped apart from the walls. Small bits of concrete from the sides of buildings crumble down into the streets below. Debris floats in mid-air as the chaos ensues, and not one small piece of it touches me. I know this is happening.
I make it happen.
I am in control.
And I'm not done yet.
1:58
The foundations of the buildings implode. The structures crash down, devastating the other buildings nearby it. Gravity starts to shift. The world is on a slant, and continues to slide. Like a corkscrew in a roller-coaster, perception is bent upside down, tall buildings disintegrating into the destruction beneath them. The world continues to bend back to a normal state.
Everything crumbles.
Floating debris starts to spin around me. I lift my head higher..........


The music dies.
I open my eyes, awakening. The track is over. I'm looking at my laptop screen. There's a blank box, with a heading that reads "Enter Text for deviation"
The deviation is titled "Darkness Within pt.2"
*sigh* Back to reality.
*I haven't figured out a title for this yet, but i don't think it will really matter if people read this or not.
