Sleeping for what felt like an eternity Was really only an hour When the time I spent with you was a blink In the forever of my life. I wanted to write a book of us But you left me only a page For myself, And for you, together If I could stay unconscious forever Our book would be endless Chapters upon chapters Of love without loss Yet here I am Gasping for breath, startled from my slumber Your face in my dreams, a surge of adrenaline Blank pages in my lap

Are you a dream or a nightmare?
Sleeping for what felt like an eternity Was really only an hour When the time I spent with you was a blink In the forever of my life. I wanted to write a book of us But you left me only a page For myself, And for you, together If I could stay unconscious forever Our book would be endless Chapters upon chapters Of love without loss Yet here I am Gasping for breath, startled from my slumber Your face in my dreams, a surge of adrenaline Blank pages in my lap
