I unknowingly search for your face in the crowd
My heart longs for a glimpse of you
You're the one I don't know
Yet you're the one on my mind
Our meeting was misplaced
A chance encounter that almost never happened
You made me blush to my roots
It wasn't just your words
It wasn't just your eyes
It was you
All of you, telling me the same thing
"You're beautiful"
I looked away
I couldn't bear the intensity of your gaze
You were beautiful too
Your brows
Your hair
Your proud nose
The curve of your lips into a smile
Drawing me to you.
I wonder about you
This boy on my mind
Who are you?
Where are you?
I wonder what we could have been
Probably more than friends
But I might never know
You didn't get down from the cab.
How did I spend my valentine?
I went on a romantic date with sleep.
He took me in his car.
He called her Sweet Dreams.
We had breakfast in London,
Lunch in Hawaii
and Dinner in Paris.
All in one day!
I fell in love with that wonderful man, Sleep.
He was a 'dream come true'
During dinner, he asked me to marry him.
I was speechless.
It was the most romantic proposal ever,
in the city of my dreams,
It was perfect.
But amid my joy, I hesitated.
'Why am I stopping?', I ask myself.
My subconscious replied.
'Because I'm here, you idiot!'
She's quite mean to me but I don't mind
'Are you sure you really want to spend the rest of your life with him??'
'Well, yes. I love him.'
'Shut up! What do you know about love?'
I didn't answer.
'Do you realize who he is?'
'Yes, I know he is Sleep, the owner of dreams'
'He is also the owner of nightmares!'
'But he's only made me happy today.'
'Fine, suit yourself. But do you know you have to die?'
'Die?', I squeaked.
She laughed at me.
I realized that all this wasn't real.
It was what it was, a dream.
I had to wake up or my dreams would never really come through.
It was fun while it lasted.
I thanked her, my mean and wise subconscious.
Then I pinched myself.
