I had this dream that a man I know met with me, and we weren't going anywhere, just visiting. But he asked me why I looked so detached, so sad, told me with my wandering eyes I looked like a princess. I said it was only a mood of loneliness, and I wasn't the pretty one in my family but all of it would pass, and he sighed, and told me he was sorry and he wished he could help me.
I haven't had a dream about him in ages. He's not the type who'd call me "princess", though. There are other men in my life who'd do that. Not him, though... he's not subtle enough for that, not close enough to me to see I am regal beneath the skin.
Sometimes I wonder what it all means... all these people will drift away from me quite presently; in a few months, I probably won't see much of them again. Oh sure I'll come home for this and that but I suspect their power over me is fading, fading quickly, soon perhaps I'll never think of them at all.
But then I've been saying since the day I met him that it was a pity we'd never meet again and he has a way of sneaking into my life unexpectedly at fits and turns and doing a number on my head when he comes. He's gone again like water flowing out to the sea but it makes me wonder what I know him for.
