Sweetest Dream, Beautiful Nightmare

Conflicted

By Mercedes ChavezPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

You make me smile like no one else does

You can make me cry like no one else does

The thought of you has brought the most overwhelming feeling of happiness I've ever felt

But it has also brought nights of crying myself to sleep and sitting in the shower to hide my tears

I miss you when I can't see you

When I'm with you sometimes I feel like you're a million miles away

You're my favorite person to talk to, I feel like if we could, we could talk for hours

I'm scared to talk to you about how I feel at times

Being held by you feels like the safest place in the world

Every time you let me go, I'm scared it'll be for the last time

You are both my sweetest dream and my most beautiful nightmare
