JULENE
I wish I were Julene
the innocent, and warm Julene
the one you could hold hands with
the one you love,
the one you dreamt of.
I wish I were Julene
the one you can tell your dreams to
your nightmares and your favorite films
the one you can dance with
around the room in the blinking lights.
I wish I were Julene
the one who sings you to sleep
and kiss you goodnight
the one you'd wake up to,
to tell "I love you",
and promise everything will be alright.
I wish I were Julene.
But sometimes I forget,
I am her,
I was your Julene.
I wish I could be your Julene again.
