Unconscious Wish Fulfillment?



A man and a woman sat next to each other
masks of blood on their faces
At a secluded gas station.
A man pumping air into them.
A familiar face girl stood nearby
watching me with hungry eyes.
Terrified, with blood full of fear
I rushed and the way hurried me to a dark space.
Darkness gave way to a grey blue room
where I stood on the bed and the girl stood beside me, her presence invisible.
My brother entered the room
and the next moment, he struggled to help himself
as a bullet went through his chest.
Astounded, I turned to the girl who held a pistol in her hand.
I grabbed him crying for help
'Call the doctor', I wailed
while the girl, watching me, shook her head.
I ran and ran and ended up in a labyrinth of buildings
Alleys and passages that led you to a dead end.
'shes the culprit, catch her!' said a voice.
I run, run and run while the girl ran along.
Was the girl an alter ego of my unconscious identity?
Perhaps I was a character in the story of her dream.
