It was almost a dream
I couldn't believe
You kissed me, then left
Like the shore and the sea.
Lips like candy floss,
Soft, sugary, and sweet
I was just this city to you
But you were the whole world to me.
I lay on my pillow
I reflect on it again and again
Trying to forget
But you're stuck in my head.
Can't move on any further
I'm stuck in one place
Stuck in my mind
Stuck on your face.
How you looked when you laughed
How you looked when you were sad
How you wrote down observations
In your pocket notepad.
It was almost a dream
I couldn't believe
You kissed me, then left
Like the shore and the sea.
