He is like my dream.
A reality in my snooze land.
Just barely there.
When he looks at me.

Until I realize he just barely feels the same.
Falling for it every damn time.
I get hurt, even when I know it will come.
And every single time I convince myself a lie.
Every time.
He looks at me and gives attention.
I start dreaming and it hurts again.
I lost count of how many time it happened.
And it seems that whenever it happens.
My hope and pride keeps getting a paper cut.
