Vision and Dreams

Little Hirosue opened up her eyes.
Shining walls of white filled her vision as she looked around her in confusion.
Everything was white. All white.

Little Suweh blinked her eyes in surprise.
What is this place? Clearly she does not remember anything of this place.
How did I even got here in the first place?

Little Suweh looked up above her as she clutched her dizzy head.
There was a light that seems to come from anywhere and everywhere.
The sky looked like a big dome of shining white.

Little Hirosue summoned her memories.
Rolling waves of dizziness threatened to engulf her.
Unconsciousness hanged in the distance.

Little Suweh pondered about with her scattered thoughts.
Her legs felt like water, head like a melon.
What little strength she had right now.

Little Suweh asked herself a thousand times a thousand.
Am I dead? Or is this Heaven? Or Hell itself?
Only the deafening silence answered her questions in return.

Little Hirosue felt overwhelmed by the questions.
With only so little answers that birthed a dozen more questions.
Where am I? What is this place?

Little Suweh looked as far as her eyes could go and reach.
Above and across ended in a pure wall of white.
Trapped in some dream, perhaps?

Little Suweh walked across the pearly grounds of shining white.
The ground was like a hard marble of shimmering light.
Trapped in some nightmare, perhaps?

Little Hirosue felt her little strength diminishing.
Weariness soon conquered both body and mind.
Trapped in her own thoughts, perhaps?

Little Suweh stumbled to the pearly grounds.
Mind fighting for coherence.
Body aching for strength.

Little Suweh tried to get up but can't.
Watery legs wobbling as she tried.
Tears streaking as she fell back lying to the ground.

Little Hirosue was dizzy.
Confused eyes rolling about and around.
Voice croaking crying for help.

Little Suweh closed her eyes very slowly.
Little Suweh felt a tear rolling across her cheeks.
Little Hirosue died . . . ?
