"Like a Dream" Inspired by A Little Like Waking:

Like a Dream

Being with you is like a dream

where reality isn’t relevant

to my experience.

Together we go on adventures

and lose track of time—

hours are days and days only hours.

We fight our demons

and laugh ‘til we cry,

we draw nearer together

and everything feels right.

But then we wake up,

go back to work,

and let the feeling of rightness

become foggy in memory,

impossible to hold on to.

Outside the dream,

I hesitate to say what I mean,

to ask the question

that keeps me awake all night,

to believe what I want is possible.

Being with you is like a dream,

and I dread the day when,

like a dream,

we evaporate into nothingness.
