i believe that through our dreams we can re-write moments once lost to time. not as in, to alter what has already come but merely to glimpse back; as to what may have been.
reliving the same sequence of events trying to find, how each moment played out best. i dream of holding you again. longer, closer; each breath more synchronised than the last.
every night i fall in love with you all over again in my mind yet, we always end up back; stuck, in the same place at the exact same time.
with you, taking my hands in yours your head pressed against mine; a gentle mumble pushed across your lips you ask; “how could you forget me?” and then, like from a hellish nightmare i awaken once more.
i don’t know if loving someone could be more tragically poetic; perhaps, the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was crossing our paths.
you asked me; “how could i forget you?” i can’t. i never have. every single night i find you in my head; just to speak to your ghost, too utter sweet nothings in your ear and to be hopelessly lost utterly and completely entranced in your gaze once again.
