The Pygmy Giant

by Andrew White

Please come back to me. You’ve been away from me for so long now. I miss you. It’s too hard.

I come here every day. Is there any sense of time or continuity where you are? I feel like I spend most of my life here, waiting. Talking to you. I’m holding your hand, can you feel that?

I don’t even know if you can hear me. The nurses say you can hear me. In films, they always hear you. Am I there too, in your dream life? Maybe this will reach you as a TV program instead, or something written in a magazine. Maybe you’ll think that this message is not for you.

It is for you. Please don’t ignore it.

Please try, for me, to wake up.
