A Girl in a Forgetful World

Lovely Dream

I could smell your cologne,
And see your eyes...
Your beautiful,
Loving,
Inspiring,
Ocean eyes.

I could hear our song,
And feel your lips graze my ear.
"Darling,
You look perfect
Tonight..."

You pointed out all the wonderful things...
How cute my hair was,
How you loved the way I laughed,
Even though I personally
Hated it.
You shook your head
And said, 
"No...
It's perfect."

Your arms were around me,
And I could feel their sweet embrace
On my hips.
When you hug,
You hug tightly,
As if you're scared
We might let go.
I was scared of that, too.

It wasn't the way we did PDA,
It wasn't the fact that our friends loved us together
Or said that we were perfect for each other...
It was the way you sent me texts in the morning
Saying you loved me so much.
It was the way you remembered
All the places I'm ticklish.
It was the way you treated me
Like I am... was... the most important person
In the world.
The way you acted
Was the reason why I fell so deeply in love with you.

I'll always remember
The giddy smile on your face.
You picked me up
And spun me around
While I laughed
And told you to put me down.

All the memories flashed by,
And here we were,
Dancing...
The worst was not real,
It hadn't ever happened.
The hell we walked through
Was just a nightmare.
I knew you would never...
Never...

I fell for you one last time
As you whispered those three powerful,
Dangerous,
Beautiful words...

I felt the butterflies in my stomach rise,
I should have known that you were made up of lies,
But here I was,
Falling for my prince's charming spell...

One last kiss
From your lips,
Your soft,
Irreplaceable,
Unforgettable lips
And I jolted up.

I laid back down,
And stared at the blank ceiling
That had seen the weakest parts of me.

I laughed.

It was all just a lovely dream...
