Past perfect

- [John] I thought I'd seen the worst disease ever created

in the cancer that ate away my dear Emily.

that bore no resemblance to the woman I married

was the worst thing that would ever happen to me.

The only thing I had left of Emily was her wedding ring,

I drove out to our cabin on the edge of the forest

and I kinda hoped to recapture some of the joy

After all, the cabin was where I proposed.

still lingers among the ancient oak trees

like a shaft of sunlight piercing through

and all I found was wood rot and bad dreams,

shambling around the mossy planks of the cabin.

I went on evening walks to try and avoid the dreams,

and it was on one of these walks that I discovered the pond.

was shining on the water's glassy surface.

and chittering night birds fell away to silence.

and took a deep breath of the fresh night air.

a sense of calm I hadn't felt in months washed over me.

I thought I'd fallen into another one of my dreams,

wasn't the wasted wrath I'd come to know in my sleep.

The full bloom of health glowed in her light brown skin,

expecting to see my wife standing next to me

But save for the watchful trees, I was alone.

When I looked back at the pond, she was still there,

smiling up at me with joyful tears in her eyes.

how the flash of her smile could melt me.

"I've, I've missed you so much," I finally managed to say.

"Touch the water, love, and we can be together again!"

I was gonna, I, I nearly leapt in the water.

but at the same time, it felt so unfamiliar.

like the sound of wind chimes in an ill-tempered wind

she reached out of the pond and slipped her hand into mine.

the soft warmth of her skin pressing into my palm.

and when she did, I could feel her breath in my ear.

All notions that I had fallen into a dream
