It feels like a dream
that you've fallen from my shelf
and opened to a story with an unexpected ending.
Your smile paints a warm glow
in the baby-blue sky,
bringing hope for a new and exciting chapter.
It feels like a dream
whenever we talk,
a dialogue that awakens butterflies in my stomach.
Your words dance through my mind
like a song I never want to stop humming,
a melody that enchants me.
It feels like a dream
that you can be next to me,
looking into my eyes as I do with yours.
Our hearts seem to beat the same symphony,
reminding me that there's a chance
and giving air to my lungs when I thought I couldn't breathe.
It feels like a dream
when you tell me I'm worth it
and pick me up when I've fallen.
You tell me I'm important
and make me feel like the main character
in a world filled with loud voices.
It feels like a dream
and I'm scared to be stirred awake
by my old friend, reality.
But if the day comes when that reverie clings to my eyelids,
I hope the images are an enchanting fairytale
that I can forever hold close to my heart.
