You won’t be here with me but I can dream
The sweetest of dreams that linger when I wake
That grasps my breath and take
The very soul within

Goose bumps plague my skin and shake I, as shivers worm through the thin portal of this sweet, sweet dream to reality

But the road we took is a filthy lie
Beautiful birds sang, the grass was green, the flowers boomed
Now the road has cracks and the birds have died.

I did not love...
