I woke up from a daydream I was having to find that I was walking on a sidewalk down town.

The ground was paved with broken hearts that felt like stepping on broken glass with bare feet.

Each step more treacherous and painful than the last. Pave with lost memories, forgotten ideas, inventions and dried up tears of past travelers.

The air was thick and it felt as though I was breathing in smoke. Pure air possessed and and polluted my the insecurity and so called necessities.

As I walked I saw the faces of the people and their fake empty smiles and serious faces. worn and tired.

Their minds jaded and too fogged by the smoke that they could no longer think for themselves.

Just then my cell phone went off. Surprised and in a somewhat panicked state I took the block of plastic out of my pocket and viewed the cold, grimly lit glowing screen.

It said I had a new message, so I opened it. It read " I love you <3<3<3".

A silence came over me, as if the world stopped.

Though the electronic was cold I could feel a comforting warmth in each word.

A small tear rolled down my face and a real smile or at least a smirk broke my stagnant distanced look.

In that moment I felt happier than I ever had, though the smile quickly faded.

It said the number was unknown, and my mind began to ponder who it might have been for I had no lover.

I looked up into the sunset which in only a minute turned into a clear crisp night sky.

Tonight was different. For it did not matter who sent the message, but to just see those words in such a decaying world and feel the love behind it.

Twas the best thing in the world at least at that time.

So I returned the favor and simply replied "I love you too <3".

The stars shined so beautifully on this night.

But.....you can't see the stars when your in the city, because of the smoke.

I wondered if anyone else saw what I saw.

Messages sent and messages received all becomes clear once someone hears.
One of my faves, this is part one.
