If Only You Were Real
By Jenny Dillon
As I reach my arms out to you
As trees sway in the summer breeze
As our love begins to brew
As treasured memories come to me with ease.
If only you were real
And not a person in my dreams
If only you could feel
Were nothing is as it seems.
If someone mildly represented thee
If you were as true as the buttercups
If you were not a fantasy
We’d walk together with our heads up.
If I could take you on a date,
We’d take our chance at luck and fate.
