he always sends a goodnight text,
right before he goes to bed.
every single night, as if it's his destiny.
"good night," he says, "have a wonderful rest of your night, and sleep well!"
and in the morning, his text awakens me just in time for my alarm.
he'll say, "good morning!" and ask what i dreamt about.
in return, i explain a dream that wasn't mine, wishing i could say "you! i dreamt about you!"
maybe one day he'll reveal that he dreams about me, too.
it's 11:11pm, and still, no "goodnight" text.
maybe he's just had a busy day.
i hope he's just had a busy day.
