Can't believe my eyes,
you were there and you took me by surprise.
We were laughing and making jokes
and then you told me you had to leave by tomorrow.

I tried to tell you everything that's happened in my life.
It was bittersweet and nostalgic, and I could only blame bad luck,
that right after I said -
"I want to tell you everything but there's not enough time,"
I woke up.
this was such a hard dream to wake up to. your face was like a mix of what you look like in pictures now and from when i remembered you years ago

Last night I was with you in a dream,
what I remember most about it was how much I enjoyed your company,
us sharing inside jokes and laughing.
All I could think about today is wanting to go back to sleep.

I had to stop myself at 3 in the afternoon and then at 7,
and tell myself that none of it actually happened.
I still dream of you after all this time,
it's getting harder to remember when you used to be mine.
The dream has been bugging me the entire day today.

1) I dreamt about you today. You didn't say a word but I remember that I kept trying to find ways for you to fall in love with me again. I woke up empty, with our song stuck in my head the entire day. (20/5)

2) The moon is round and bright tonight. I wonder if you still look for the moon and stars and think of me. (23/5)

3) I dreamt of you. I couldn't go back to sleep afterwards. (21/6)
This is something new I'm trying out. I'm gonna keep adding on to this list as time goes by. Let's hope the list is a short one.

I looked for your face in the crowd.
maybe you would want to share this moment with me
The day ended without a word from you.

The Sun still went down,
the Moon still shone brightly in the night sky.
I still look for you.
I still, more than anything, wanted to hear from you.

I hope I made you proud today.
I graduated but the person I loved wasn't there and it didn't hide the fact that something felt unbalanced.

There's this path I'm supposed to follow
A planned-out map with nothing in-between
It's this path I don't choose that leaves me hollow
While the traces in this life makes me incomplete

Haven't I done enough to be who I'm made to be?
My love wasn't meant to be passed on
when there is so much more to see.
I don't know who I am and it's scaring me.
Is it okay to feel this lost at 20?

Be still, be here
Stay still, stay near
Beside me, consider this
Still life by your bedside.

Glances and pauses,
the blush in your eyes,
The sudden rush,
as you passed by.

My greatest fear,
of you no longer here.
You left but you're still here.

I've been having recurring dreams
about forgiving an old friend.
Three different dreams with one meaning
and they never seem to end.

1.
Do you still hate me?
After those fights we had, the gossip and glares --
I just thought we were better than that.

2.
Did you forget about me?
Remember when our memories could last forever?

3.
My last chance, the final test.
Please forgive me.
Hesitated with a glance and now I will never rest.
This is for you, my table partner and friend, never foe.
