Dreams Last

“Dreams last so long even after you’re gone” these tears shouldn’t still be falling I shouldn’t still be calling your name in my mind every night before I find respite in sleep from thoughts of you and I feel numb as I walk to school as I feel like a fool I must have been a tool and yet when she asks me I don’t know what answer to give this she who is between us and yet who must keep us together and I’ve never felt this amount of wrong for so long because of some little boy who could be just a toy if I didn’t remember the love I felt so much so much and how I melt so much so much in his arms and the welt he left on my mind when it was my turn to find that everything wasn’t fine and that he wasn’t really mine. for you are constantly playing a game of capture the flag because, with out lagging you go from macho teenager to suave romantic to a meager child in a matter of moments and these torments are too much for me but “I go about my business I’m doing fine besides what would I say if I had you on the line same old story, not much to say hearts are broken every day” hearts are broken every day but this may be the worst I’ve been hurt but that doesn’t keep me from weeping over what could have been. because “Dreams last so long even after you’re gone and I know that you love me and soon you will see you were meant for me and I was meant for you.”
