Within the Restless Mind: a book of poetry

Once Upon A Dream

Once upon a dream, you and I
walked together- side by side and
hand in hand.. talking about
everything and nothing all at once.
Manifesting our futures and
not thinking of what had passed
in our lives before we met one another.

But, when I awaken from my slumber,
you are not there— for in reality, you
are someone I've never met.
If I only I actually knew you.
               If only. If only.
