I never did see Dream again.
Maybe it was because I knew he wasn't real, maybe because I knew it would hurt to see him. But never the less, I just wished I could go back. I wish that I could tell him that I loved him over and over again, and I wish that I could kiss him one last time. But it never happened.
Every time I fell asleep, I'd just wake up and forget the nonsense that I had dreamt about that night. I'd close my eyes again and try to go back to my dream land. But nothing seemed to work. I felt empty.
Now here I am, laying on my roof watching the stars at 2am. I knew I wouldn't be able to fall asleep anytime soon so I just sat here. It brought back pleasant memories, ones that I wish would just go away. Memories that should be lost in the sea of stars above my head.
It brought back memories off him.
The time we stargazed in a field and snuggled in the grass. How I felt warmth radiating off of him. I had felt alive. He had felt real. But now, it was no more than a distant memory. A memory I can look back on and smile at, even though it made me sad. A memory of a time that I was happy and didn't feel alone.
Even though I was still all alone back then, I hadn't felt it. I had felt exhilarated and I had something to look forward to. But that's no longer the case.
But that's alright. I'll be alright.
Even though I miss him, and I know he was never real, I know that he'd want me to move on and find my own happiness. And so, that's what I'll do. For Dream.
Because I loved him, and still do.
