lovers in a dream

even though I tell myself
that I'm over you, my heart
knows damn well that's not true.

I'm only lying to myself when I say:
I don't miss you every single day.

that I don't miss your laugh
when I say stupid stuff.

that I don't miss the
smile that lights up your
entire face when you see me.

that I don't miss running
my fingers through your
perfectly golden hair.

that I don't miss
how perfectly my
hand fits in yours.

that I don't miss getting
lost in those green eyes.

that I don't miss how
safe your hugs
make me feel.

I'm not gonna lie
and say I don't miss you.
because the truth is
I miss you so fucking much
it hurts.

If you didn't miss me why'd you tell me that
I'd always have a piece of your heart in my dreams last night?

-to a love that only exists in dreams
