We make it through the night alright. I'm never ready to answer when tommorow calls. I loved that single braid in your hair. The way you fought against the morning. How, you ensnared my senses. Your carefree smile that betrayed your defenses: I loved. Summer is setting in. The time we belong to is seeing further restrictions. So it doesn't feel selfish suggesting " maybe we can stay like this...a little longer?" The blinds are closed. Still the light out builds stronger. And I'm a mind away from eyes wide open. I'm unfulfilled. The next few moments will be killing me. They say dreams only last when your mind isn't made-up (honey you should stay, if you are feeling this unsure...) but the time has come. This illusion: it is losing its allure. The time has come to wake up. -

The story of a man weighing his want to remain with the woman of(in) his dreams against his need to wake up soon.
