The other night I dreamt of Trey.

I was at CdM on the first day of school. Everyone was there and every face had a name.

I was saying hi to Ann Klunder and suddenly Michelle Tolfa walked behind me and said "Hey Adi!" I didn't notice so she started walking away with a guy and I heard her say, faintly, "Oh, fine, ignore me!"

So I immediately turned around and yelled "Hey, wait Michelle! How are you?"
She turned around and next to her was Trey in his high-water cords and Jurassic Park shirt. As soon as I saw Trey I stared at him. My mouth was agape. Michelle and others were making small talk but I couldn't hear it, much less care about it. Trey stared back at me and smiled. He spoke and his voice became the one clear thing I heard, "Be careful" he said. Then he reached out and gave me a hug, the kind of hug that is so tight your shoulders touch your cheeks, just like the last hug he gave me in New York, a week before he died.

I kept my eyes open when he hugged me in the dream. I felt them turn red and hot. I saw the planter behind us, the big tree, the quad behind it, the stage behind that, the buildings, the people--all getting blurry. Suddenly I broke away and began the walk back to the music room. I felt like everyone was looking at me, watching me cry for no reason. But I knew better than they did.

Just before I got in the hallway I remember thinking "I wish Bree could be at CdM this year"

Then I woke up.

I miss you so, so much.

Hey smilin' strange
You're lookin' happily deranged
Could you settle to shoot me?
Or have you picked your target yet?

Hey Sandy
Don't you talk back, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey Sandy

Four feet away
End of speech, it's the end of the day
We was only funnin'
But guiltily I thought you had it comin'

Hey Sandy
Don't you talk back, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey Sandy



Are you crazy, man?
You didn't notice her?
You must be blind
It's all I do now
Just think about how
She will be mine

I couldn't stand up
I couldn't sit down
One look at her and I stumble around

One look at her
I get irrational
She ties my tongue
I saw her downtown
On a cloudy day
She brought the sun
She's not a part of the scene
She don't socialize
She does her own thing
She's ahead of her time
Just the right speed
She is staggering

I couldn't stand up
I couldn't sit down
One look at her and I stumble around
She is staggering
She is staggering

She's uncommonly heavenly
She is so rare
She's beautiful, exceptional
She doesn't care

I couldn't stand up
I couldn't sit down
One look at her and I stumble around
I couldn't get to sleep
And then I couldn't eat
She's all that I want
She is all that I need
She is staggering
She is staggering
She is staggering
She is staggering
