The house is rickety and dark Like some kind of old camp cabin I appear in the hallway Lighted only by a single hanging bulb It smells wet The pouring rain from outside Penetrating the rotting wooden walls A musty brown and red rug limply rests on the floor Covered in a slight layer of dust There are about ten other people here I do not know any of them, except one; this being my mother Yet, she mills about with the rest of them Almost as if they were sleepwalking Programmed to move about in a pattern Not really interacting with their surroundings Where am I This place feels so familiar And not in a good way I have been here before And the mere energy of this room feels unsettling Why I start to slowly move around The others taking no notice What is this feeling of dread in the pit of my stomach The wind blows through the cracked walls Sending a chill up my spine And a whistle in my right ear I spot a mirror on the far wall And see my own blurry reflection The mirror is stained, rusted and covered in paint splatter Or, at least what I hope is paint My features appear slightly warped As if in some kind of twisted fun house Less "haha," more "get me out of here" I feel a glint of recognition, and slowly move closer I know exactly where I've seen it A couple of years ago I had stared into this glass when it still sparkled Shiny and new I had felt an impending sense of doom then as well As I watched my features melt like a candle My eyes and mouth had darkened into a twisted mess My gut vibrating as I felt a voice rise up from the deepest part of me I remained completely lucid as another entity spoke from my body In a low pitched series of rasps and groans It was then I had awoken, safe in my bed Trembling and petrified maybe But safe nonetheless As I move my face closer It all comes flooding back I had forgotten this dream from way back when Why is it here now When I have been feeling the happiest of my life I approach the mirror from the side, shaking I'm drawn to it like a magnet Like a moth to a flame I finally muster the courage to look myself in the eyes It's just me The same deep shade of blue I look my face up and down, looking for any sign of change Only the newest set of forehead wrinkles And a couple new gray hairs I hear a low hum, and another breeze through the planks The lightbulbs begin to flicker The rain stops Still staring into my reflection My eyes and mouth once again begin to melt and twist They turn darker and darker Until black as midnight And once again, I feel the voice Hey, Remember me Suddenly, I'm aware that something feels different Last time, I had let this energy completely take over With not even a shred of free will I feel acutely aware of this And something snaps in my brain like a rubber band I have control My voice transforms again The deep wailings of a soul in pain Giving way to a beautiful melody My eyes and mouth slowly start to revert to their natural state As I try to comprehend what song I'm singing This is something new that I've never heard before Yet I sing it like I've heard it a million times I look back into my own eyes The same deep shade of blue The house is still and quiet And the others have all gone The melody hums its final notes from the center of my chest I give myself a slight smile And wake up Sing
