Perhaps a Dream

Perhaps a Dream By Benjamin Mui Or was it all just a dream? And I’ve finally woken up To a wondrous morning glow With a kite dancing in the wind You and I running amongst the grass Only to spin around and fall Faces to the orange sky I thought I gave you the best of me Yet it never felt enough If somehow I could take the wrists of time And run back to the start of it all Knowing how all things would end I wouldn’t change a thing Just so I could hold you again In my arms one last time Perhaps I was never in love Merely in love with the idea of it Feeling something much less Tricking myself to be something more Desperate to hold onto anything Before dropping into the depths below But I’m hoping that I’m just fast asleep And when I wake up you’ll still be here
