To float is not to sink...

To be taken places you've never been before.

An adventure, a nightmare... an escape.

A momentary bliss...

From the place called reality.

To float is not to sink...

To be taken places you've never been before.

An adventure, a nightmare... an escape.

A momentary bliss...

From the place called reality. I rarely visit the subway station. Cause when I do, it brings out the worst memories. Like the movie in my head. The one the plays on and on, the one i'll never get to write.

But in my head, it lives, in live vivid color.

I would sit there waiting for someone, while a guy, sits at the other end, waiting for the next train, leaving.

For a second we would be the only two people who would matter in the world, fated only to watch each other from afar, with an understanding that it would never work, no matter how hard we want it too.

And the moment passes by, just like that, he would leave for the next train, and the person i'm waiting for would arrive.

We would live our lives forgetting about that one significant moment.

Until. We meet again.

"Is this seat taken?" He would ask while i sit there pretending not to notice. Then I see his face, his perfectly chiseled face, his eyes deep as the ocean. "You're perfect." I say, not caring what he would think or what he would say after. He would ramble about something.

"Hey, can you help me? I'm looking for this place called.... Well, it's called The Strip...." Ramble about something some more.

But non of it mattered, because only he mattered. The fate that brought us together, this place, this bench, the two of us.

"It's a club named the strip, but it's not... Ohhhhh bullocks!!! Who would name a club such a name anyway!!!" "It's useless, you're not even listening to me are you?" He will say, feeling a bit of a nuisance at this point.

But I was. I was just distracted by his God-like beauty.

"Take the elevator over there... It's right up, getting there is easy, but getting in is a different story." I replied. "I can get you inside if you like, but you need to help me with something first."

He kept his silence. "No thanks." he would say. "I think I can manage on my own." his voice would sound like a wave of tears, full of sorrow, full of regret. But he would stand up and follow the path ahead of him.

"Thanks" he would said before he completely disappears. If he wanted to find me, he would know where to go. And just to my surprise. He did. But things were only starting to sink in now, this wasn't just in my head, it was really happening.

This was really happening, this guy, this place, it's not the same movie i directed in my head, it was a movie where I was the actor, and the world was my stage, the Gods my audience. "Turns out, you were right." he first said. "Looks like I really do need your help."

This was really happening, it's all real.

"So, what do you need help with? I'm not sure i'll be much of a help, but I can try." He continues. This was real, and I said all those things... Like he's perfect and all that... I didn't just imagine it.

"Hello?" he asked. But i sat there, a frozen statue, shamed, and slightly alarmed by my new found condition.

 This was something I could no longer change, so I took my shot at it.

"I need you, to pretend to be... My boyfriend." I said with the same straight face, he just sat there with an honest look on his face, the gravity of what I told him must have flown right pass his ears. "I have to be what?" He asked only realizing what I told him.

"It's a long story, but I guess I have to tell you all about it now, so listen." I explained.
