Having Tea with Me

This isn't new, but it sings something deep from my heart.


  My Heart's Wish

I had a dream that was sung from the inner most desires of my heart. Something I have wanted more than anything in the world. I dreamed that I met George Roger Waters from the greatest band in my lifetime, Pink Floyd. For a long time, I have yearned to tell all five members how much I love them and to thank them from the bottom of my heart for their wonderful gift. I consider them one of the most significant parts of my life, because they were there when I was feeling down at an early age. I would watch their Live at KQED and Live at Pompeii shows as much as possible and I loved every second of it.

Although it tears me up inside that I may never have a real chance to tell at least one of them how I feel, I still have my dreams. In my dream, I was standing in line to get their autograph. I was standing next to someone who looked like Roger. I was skeptical, but I knew it was really him. My eyes welled with tears and I leaped into his arms. I squeezed him so tightly, I could feel his long, gray hair in my face and I said to him, “Thank you..thank you so much for everything.” It felt so real; I could swear I wasn't dreaming.

Needless to say, I felt pretty bummed when I awoke in reality. Where it was just a fantasy and Pink Floyd was just a flight of fancy; an obsession. As I write this however, I feel very grateful for what I have in my life. My family, my friends, and my love for Pink Floyd.
