The Japanese House – Saw You In A Dream (Slowed)

I saw you today. And it reminds me that you are real. That you were once real to me. Or perhaps that you are real,

- but not in my world, not in my infinite capacity that held you once, but never held you again.

Fyodor Dostoyevsky. Crime and Punishment. 1866.

when the japanese house sings 'you were the sweetest apparition such a pretty vision' im fine. im fine.

Well... It's strange, really. They are very dissimilar, yet they all seem to link somehow. I can tell it's really you. On the first one, you were hanging upside down from a belfry tower, like you do in the cave. I was inside the tower, and you descended upon me, threatening. I was terrified, yet... you didn't hurt me. I woke up after that. A few months passed, and I dreamt about you again. But you were crying. You had lost someone and seemed beyond consolation. I think it was one of your brothers... Paul, maybe? You allowed me to see that. I don't know if you had meant to show me this, but you seemed very intoxicated. A long time after that, I dreamt that you held me, and were about to bite my neck... You... Well. It was more like you gave me a hickey. I was at peace, though, you could have bitten me and I would have thanked you. I enjoyed it. I also dreamt of you with your brothers, you were at the boardwalk. But only you and Marko saw me. You walked towards me, and held my face meanwhile you smiled. On the latest one... You simply walked towards me, smiling. And this overwhelming feeling of happiness completely took over me. There's not much more after that, other than a strange feeling of awareness of having dreamt about you. I thought I was infatuated, or maybe projecting on you. But you keep coming back, it's almost like I feel you. Are you messing with my head, or shall I get back in touch with my old therapist?

"Well, that does seem rather peculiar," He hummed, kicking his booted feet up to cross them at the ankle. " Im afraid I've never been to the Belfry Tower. And while yes I have lost a great deal, I fear, my dear that I've not had the pleasure of making your acquaintance just yet, at least not in person," David smiled. It's an easy thing that stretched across his lips, dimpled his cheek, made those blue eyes glitter. " Be a dear. Introduce us~" His voice was smooth and thick like honey.

I saw you in a dream You came to me You were the sweetest apparition, such a pretty vision There was no reason, no explanation The perfect hallucination

Saw You in a Dream, The Japanese House

Dear lettuce,

I saw you were laughing today. Your smile made me feel smth. I know we broke up months ago but seeing your smile and hearing your laugh messed with me. We pass each other in the halls, catching each other's eyes yet ignoring and acting like we have never met. Seeing you smile brought back all the old feelings. It made me forget why I broke up with you. And now I can't stop thinking about it. I heard u used to talk about me in art class. I guess I can't say anything about that cus I talk about you too. I wish instead of this we would talk to each other.
