champagne & glitter

dreams

ben & summer

the night was dark and

the city was large.

it was filled with

anything

and everything

and as i watched from my window,

my fear was eating at me.

so just as the city

started to roar

in drunken celebration

i ran from the house with

a swelling cold in my chest

that made it hard for me to breathe

as i ran through the streets,

but that made me push harder.

i wasn't sure of the future,

but i knew that she had to be in it.

so i searched

and searched

because i had always

been a dreamer

and she had always believed

in my dreams.
