Only A Dream
As my head hits the pillow I sink into a bliss.
 A puffy cloud forms above my head, I am in another world.
 A world with perfect people, no tears, no sadness.
 A world where love is never hard to find, and hate is unknown,
 where people don't judge you by the way you act.
 I control how I want my story to end,
 and with whom I want to spend it with.
 
 I can feel the end is near,
 I hold onto those few moments as if they are my last.
 I look at the people who surround me in this perfect place.
 People I never talk to, are now somehow a part of my life.
 People I wish I knew better are loved ones now.
 I take one last look and can see their faces fading,
 no longer able to reach out to me.
 
 I open my eyes,
  blink a few times, 
 trying to sort out reality from fantasy.
 Remembering back to the things that seemed so real.
 I try to close my eyes again.
 Hoping somehow,
 everything will come back.
 But it is hopeless.
 I am awake now.
 No longer connected to my dreams.
