Sonhos Dracônicos
by Dusty Lynn Holloway Débora C R de SouzaEm minha sombra você dorme, faminto por minha alma. Em meu coração você vive, alimentado e em paz. Em minha vida você pertence, sempre. O alvorecer rubro da guerra se choca com a maré. Cai o negror. Sombras ganham vida. Eu chamo por você. Vejo você do outro lado do campo de batalha, chamando por mim. Tantos estão entre nós. Viro as costas para a maré; a maré avança, crescendo, estourando, cobrindo. Levanto minha mão e encaro o céu acima. Cai o silêncio. Uma quietude. Lágrimas caem. Líquidas, elas caem pelo meu rosto, minhas bochechas encardidas, em minhas roupas manchadas de sangue. Levanto minha outra mão. Uma explosão de tempo avança, galopando como meu coração enquanto aguardo o golpe final. . . Mas ele nunca vem. Eu congelei o momento no tempo, enquanto a lâmina destinada ao meu coração perfura o dele. Os soluços estrangulam meu peito enquanto encaro o metal, reluzindo vermelho como o sol nascente, despontando de seu peito. Seus olhos estão também congelados, fixados nos meus. Eles não parecem surpresos. Eu caio de joelhos; lágrimas rolam mais intensamente. Ouço sua voz. Um berro, um grito de dor e raiva e desespero e medo atravessando o campo. Eu não me volto. Eu olho direto para frente, para os olhos que estão fixos nos meus enquanto trago ambas as mãos para baixo em um gesto tão cortante quanto a lâmina. Luz explode para fora a partir de mim, disparando através do campo de batalha, consumindo tudo. Eu caio. Ele cai também. Seus olhos falam de coisas que ele não pode dizer. Eles se fecham após um minuto, mas os meus permanecem abertos. Você, então, me alcança. Todos os outros estão prensados ao chão, revolvendo-se na terra encharcada de sangue, mas você chega até mim. Você me vira com a face para cima. Você me recolhe em seus braços. Você chora, mas meus olhos estão secos agora. Meus olhos estão secos. —Vai ficar tudo bem — eu sussurro para você. — Vai ficar
