I look around,
At the people, the places, everyone here is a stranger.
I miss you.
I am going through the motions of this life.
Why do we fight, love, or live?
I wish we had never happened.
We know in the future it will all be lost.
I close my eyes to remember a stunning world.
I see peace and harmony.
No one is lost, we all live in happiness.
Nothing is fading and everything makes sense at last.
I am happy at last.
Finding a true love, and it’s here to stay.
We run down a dark green forest.
Hand in hand we sprint.
The leaves fall from the trees and down upon our heads.
We splash through the river and allow our feet to get wet.
Finally we fall down in a meadow among wild flowers.
He holds my hand, and I hold his.
Our legs intertwined with one another’s.
He whispers soft things in my ear, and the world feels right.
I feel his warm breath on me.
He’s panting from sprinting.
He leans in closer to my mouth,
I close my eyes and feel his fingers run down my face.
His forehead is pressed to mine now, I know what will happen.
In an instance,
I open my eyes.
He is gone and reality creeps in on me.
My love is gone and I am back in the real world.
Surrounded by darkness and tall buildings, with strangers passing by.
My love is gone and so is my happiness.
I guess the only peace I will ever feel is in my head.
