Awake

one of one

I had a dream last night and I was happy, for the first time in a long time. I felt like I could just breathe and not fall apart. Anyway, you were in my dream, I don’t really remember much else. You were there and I was happy, the world seemed beyond perfect.

But it was one of those dreams when you know you’re dreaming, so I knew you were a dream but I didn’t care. When I woke up, reality hit and I knew that you were stuck in my dream and I was stuck awake.

Then that line from Hamlet popped into my mind, “to sleep perchance to dream.” And I knew you be pissed if I went to sleep so, for you, I decided to try and be happy while I’m awake. Even if it’s nowhere near as happy as I was when I dreamt about you.
