a war in my mind

"He's the man of my dreams!"

Not figuratively or in a sappy romance way, but literally. The handsome stranger appeared in my dream and guided me through the nightmarish loop.

He's real? I must still be dreaming.

A simple dream or a fated encounter that brings two wandering souls to cross paths?

"There's so much more to life than the sadness you feel...let me show you."
