Premonition

I don't claim to be a wiseman, I'm not a gypsy, and I certainly can't give you a five day forecast for the weather. But over the past couple years I've had...feelings about certain people. Feelings about events or occurances that would happen to them later on, and unfortunately most of them have been correct. It doesn't get much worse than knowing about something bad and then not being able to do anything about it, and thats exactly the kind of situation I've got. Only this time, it's Kris. It could be the paranoia of just being a close friend, but for a couple weeks I've had a bad feeling about something happening to her. To make matters worse, I had a dream the other night. Most of it was too fuzzy to remember, but one thing stuck in my head clearly. I was driving down a street pretty much in the middle of nowhere. It was a dark night, I don't even remember seeing stars. The only light was coming from a nearby gas station. I looked in my rearview mirror and saw her rolling on the pavement, as if she just fell off a bike or something. I immediately stopped the car and ran out to her. At first glance she seemed to be okay, but as I knelt down to hold her and tilt her head up, I felt blood on the back of her head. I can't remember if she regained consciousness or not, the dream ended shortly after I picked her up. There is an upcoming football game, the famous Iowa vs. Iowa State game. If anything is going to happen to her, it'll most likely be there.

What the hell am I saying? Am I just going to go up to her and say "I had a bad dream about you, so I'm going with you to the game." As much as I want to just dismiss this feeling as nothing more than paranoia, it's hard to do so. I suppose I just gotta have faith that I'll do whatever it takes when the time comes.



There wern't any stars in the sky...
