Am I supposed to believe that this time it is really you?
Standing there, looking at me the way you always used to?
I want to give in to the temptation of blissful ignorance
And live in this moment, with no thought of disappointment or consequence
But I won’t allow myself, like so many times before
It is time I accept that you are not here anymore
It’s not enough only reliving our moments in my memories
Knowing that you are not here to experience them with me
So this will be the last time I dream of you
The last time I see you
What has become of me?
Depending on this fallacy so pathetically
I need to do this for me.
I am so sorry.
I can’t do it, I won’t let go.
I don’t care if I’m weak. I don’t want to be alone.
Surely having you like this is better than not at all
Your perfect reflection, never changing, so beautiful
I cannot feel your touch, but I can feel your presence
The closest I will ever have to our previous existence.
And if that’s all there is, then that is enough
I can’t give up on this, I won’t give up on your love
You said you would never leave, and I said I wouldn’t too
I don’t want to grieve, I need to keep hold of you
But for now, it’s time to wake up
I can once again bear to go through this temporary break up
Things all of a sudden aren’t as bad as what they once seemed
Thank you for staying, I will see you next in my dreams
