Dream to Sleep

ode to me

the girl from tomorrow

I am going to sleep. Because when I sleep I get to see all of the people I have ever loved. All of those with whom I’ve lost touch.

I remember his phone number by heart, it’s just I don’t drink enough anymore to call him. I am not in love with anyone still- still a girl can dream.

When I see you I know that I am dreaming right away, since in real life you wouldn’t give me the time of day.

That is alright though. I am not dwelling on you any further.

I am okay with a murmur now and then old friend.

Moving forward is forever.

I am going to dream. Not so much to find someone else, more to be happy with myself.

To do what I have always wanted, and write. I will write all of you down so I can remember you. Seeing how the movies in our head can be so hard to hang on to.

I remember the first time I saw you, you were walking through a parking lot. Love at first site no, mezmorized yes.

The last time I saw you, you were sweet.

Now I only see you while I sleep.

Why do you always visit me in my dreams? Tell me! I demand to know. You never showed me your soul.

I suppose I never showed you mine, god knows I tried.

I will write. I will write to remember the sweet moments that I think of , like that one time you waved to me. Something so small that I think of often. I know the song I was listening to at that very moment. Of course it makes me think of you every time I hear it.
