The view was amazing.
The passing landscape and the ocean blow took my breath away.
I have always wanted to travel on a plane.
And for my first time to be in first class is just exciting.
I spent most of my time looking outside.
" Trina look it's a group of killer whales", shouted an excited Kim.
" Kim, you know they are called orcas, right?", I said with a smirk.
She just stared at me angrily and sign.
I laughed a bit at her expense.
She seemed so excited.
The flight was about 20 hours so we had a lot of time on our hands.
I decided to take a quick nap.
" Kim, wake me up when we land or when there is food around. I really want to try food from this place."
She signed again but this time with a smile and said," The only thing you think of lately is food. I swear one-day you will be poisoned."
I smirked and said," Yes but that day is not today. Have some fun while I sleep."
I closed my eyes and proceeded to catch some Z's.
' I was in a dark room with no lights on. I started to shake uncomfortably and my body felt so weak. I wanted to cry, I wanted to give up. All I wanted to do was go home.
"Trina, Trina, Trina, can you hear me. If you can please respond. Trina please, we need to do this together."
I understood that I shouldn't give up but it felt so hard. I just wanted to curl up into a ball and die. That is all I wanted to do.
I felt so weak and my body was too malnourished to move. How did this happen? and why am I here? Dear God, if you can hear my prayer, just get me out of here.
I balled my hands into fists. Hit the ground and started to scream. This is not over yet. I won't let it be over.
I heard footsteps approach me and suddenly everything when black.
The last words I heard before I passed out were," I got you, love."
And I suddenly found peace is the darkness.'
I quickly woke up sweating.
Who was that?
Where was I?
And why was I down there?
I looked around to see if I was still on the plane and I started to look for Kim. I was panicking but I don't know why.
I soon located her stuffing her face with deserts and sweets.
I laughed tiredly and she looked concerned.
She started towards me but I waved her off.
I signaled I was ok and it was just one of my nightmares again.
She still looked concerned but it was enviable.
I mean I have nightmares every single day but they always seem to scare me.
Kim had to stay by me most nights to tell me everything is ok and that I am no longer there anymore.
It took a lot of convincing to stop my tears but it was ok.
Kim is the only person that was with me through it all.
And even if she does not want to believe it, she is my family and I would do anything for her. Including giving away my life to ensure she was safe.
She made her way towards me and gave me a hug. She offered me one of her cakes.
It was my favorite, a red velvet cake with a picture perfect rose on top.
I know she doesn't like to share her cakes but I am grateful. She really does care for me.
She makes me feel as though I am not alone inside and I am grateful for that.
" So I saw some whales, and I think I saw megalodon somewhere over that side( pointing at the east) but I an not sure."
I laugh a bit and continue to listen to her as she tells about what she saw.
I hope this moment never ends.
I rest my eyes on the setting sun.
It looks so beautiful.
I want to write a poem about it.
The glittering shimmer of the setting sun.
oh how glorious it is.
it backend to pirates of the past,
Created hope for many
And sung lullabies to all of us.
Oh what a glorious sunset.
Setting on the tides of love and longing.
A repellent of evil
Represents the sun and with it's
setting, we are vulnerable to evil
in which roams the night.
Grace us with your protection oh get sun.
So that, I may one-day sing about your grace and beautiful.
You are the center of my universe and I stall keep you so.
My glorious sun.
