Do You Remember?
I know they are watching all the time. The moon is here. I can see it. I can´t be
wrong; I see it right here. Am I crazy? No. I can’t be. If I could only go out for a second
and prove them all wrong. But they won’t let me. They are always watching. As I walk I
can feel them looking at me. Everywhere I go they are always there; up, down, right, or
left, they are always there.
“You are not ready to go out yet.” They say, “We’re not in the moon. Go back to
sleep.”
The curtains are down. Is it day time already? The sun. I haven’t seen it in a very
long time. Where could it be? The last time I saw it was…I think it was… maybe… a long
time ago. I hate it anyway. I don’t miss it. I can only see the moon. I know it was those
birds. They alter everything. I know it’s them. Those annoying noises they make all day
long. I can hear them all the time. How do they even do that? I can´t see the moon nor the
stars when the curtains are down. I hate the curtains; I love the moon.
Even if I don’t see them I can feel them watching me. They can go wherever they
want whenever they want. But me? I have to stay here. Here it comes. One of them with his
annoying noises. I hate them.
“Hello Jack, how are you doing?” Said one of them.
“Where is the sun?” I said.
“It is out there. You know you can’t see it. It’s not good for you.” He said.
