the tiny moon ₊ ⊹ ﹆

I dance alone in my room
imagining you with me,
i sing alone in my hall,
imagining you with me,
finally tired,
i fall asleep on my bed,
with a smile etched on my face,
imagining me with you.

I awaited this moment all day long,
all because i get to see you again,
we dance along at the ball,
sneak away to the roof,
we run across the sea shore,
we lay in the sand,
i turn to look at you with a smile,
you look so breathtakingly beautiful.
i want to freeze time forever and stay here,
with you.

Because my happiness is wherever you are,
my home is in your arms,
my heart is in your captive,
i close my eyes and cherish this moment.
I reluctantly open my eyes,
and look at my old grey ceiling,
its over already?
it felt short yet so healing,

I stand and get ready for the day
i mumble a 'will be back later' to the alone apartment and lock the door,
i still remember the first time i met you,
strolling through the new city
i came across an authentic bookstore
A book with intricate lines,
stood there with pride,
It's name was,
The Tiny Moon Among The Huge Stars
I stood silent for a second,
staring at it
as if i was compelled to it
i go inside the store and feel a new sense of calmness,
i buy the book along with two other
That night,
i didn't sleep,
i read the book till 5am in the morning,

The protagonist of it spoke to my heart,
i fell in love the second i met him,
i read that book again and again until the lines were engraved in my mind- my soul just like they were on the cover of it,
i started fantasizing about him,
i thought about him
every second of the day,

but i knew,
i knew it,
deep within me,
lied the truth,
I'm real in this reality,
he isnt
He is just a character in someone's writings
he's just a bunch of lines on a paper

But i'm in love,
I'm in love with someone who isnt real,
I kept denying myself of the truth,
but it became heavier each day.

The night came,
and i go to sleep today as well,
today seems different for some reason,
why is it i wonder,
that he's standing there,
waiting for me with a smile
i cant comprehend

Today, we ran onto the hills,
he built us a camp,
we have our fill and lay down
below the stars
the stars seems to have an extra shine to them today,
is it something special?
he then says something along the lines of,
i'm not real
my eyes widen and i turn my head to look at him,
what, no,
he is real, to me,
that is.

He then looks at me with the softest smile and says,
"Its Time To Let Go My Love"
I don't say anything and just smile back at him,
people usually look at the pain behind someone's eyes,
but he,
He looked at the pain behind my smile,
he envelopes me in a tight hug and everything starts to fade away,

I open my eyes again and
look at my ceiling,
i sit up,
touch my cheeks and feel them wet,

It Seems He Wasn't Real, To Others.
He Will Always Be Real, To Me.
He Will Always Stay, In My Heart.
