You were in my dreams again last night, your lips were sweet and your eyes were bright.
You looked at me, my eyes were sad, you were whispering that life without me had driven you mad.
Our lips were touching, but it was barely a kiss. My voice was trembling, spilling all the things about you I’d missed.
Your touch was warm, your hold was strong, the smell of your skin reminded me of what’s been gone for so long.
You could see the pain you left inside of me, but last night, in my dream, you retaught me how to breathe.
We danced for hours, our laughter growing loud, and when you pulled me back in, you twirled me around.
We created a world, only we could see. Full of memories, and forgiveness, and “let’s start again”s.
Your words were spinning illusions in my head, letting me believe things that were never said.
Like the countless times those words “I love you” stuck on my tongue.
But it was all just a dream
