I dreamt of you last night.
Thereโ€™s always this thought of me to not regret any second weโ€™re together.
Thatโ€™s why I wanted to be the first one to say โ€œI love youโ€ and itโ€™s okay if you wonโ€™t say it back.
After all these months that we didnโ€™t see each other.
Iโ€™m okay if you wonโ€™t say you love me, I just wanted to put my message across.
That I love you, and Iโ€™ll love you โ€˜til my last breath.
Then an unexpected happened in my dreams.
You said โ€œI love youโ€ first.
And I said โ€œI love youโ€ back.
I wonโ€™t forget this dream, and I dreamt of you again.
Twice.
Iโ€™m thankful that we get to see each other, that we get to talk to each other.
Again, even if itโ€™s in my dreams.
I love you.
