Monologue

Hi! Remember that dream you keep having? Yeah, the one where you’re drowning. Well I’m in it. I’m in your dream, on the water’s edge while you’re gasping for breath. Staring into your eyes from a distance while you’re struggling to keep your head above the murky water… shouting, screaming unintelligible words and muffled cries for help…oh, those cries… You have a beautiful voice you know that? Oh no, no…I’m not jumping in. I’m not trying to save you. It’s your dream and it’s your river. Your trees behind me and your sand underneath my feet. Your cigarette I’m smoking while your face disappears in the muddy water…and your thoughts I’m thinking while watching you go. It’s all you… I’m you…. and you don’t want to save yourself.  But why are you talking to yourself? You’re wasting your breath. You know you never listen.
