Daydreams and Reality

i think about you

when i go to fall asleep

 

you run circles in my mind

make me dizzy with giddy feelings of love and happiness

 

i imagine that you're laying beside me

close enough for me to hear your heartbeat

 

you're always smiling in these daydreams

the love you hold for me apparent in your eyes

 

but those are in my childish fantasies

not reality

 

in reality

you are the opposite

 

you stay stationary under my glance or gaze

and make me sick with horrible feelings of worry and dread

 

i see that you're walking far away from me

far enough for me to be unable to make out your shape

 

you're always frowning in the real world

the love you once held for me extinguished in your eyes

 

i yearn to see the you from my daydreams become true

i yearn to see the you from the real world become false

 

i dream of the day the you i fell in love with becomes real again
