Last night I dreamed you needed me.
In the background,
Melissa sang "No Souvenirs"
I whispered softly along
wrapped in a haze of contentment
emptiness banished.
Unexpectedly, you touched me
It all came slamming back
Everything I'd buried
the completeness, the hunger.
This morning I wept
I remembered, nothing faded.
It was just a dream.
