We don’t live forever,
I know this,
just as sunlight and moonbeams
can’t shine simultaneously,
but sometimes I feel
like he and I
will transcend the inevitable.

Imagining the opposite
is unimaginable
because it means one of us
will be left alone with our tears
to sweep up the shattered pieces
of our hearts
in every room we step into.
It means going solo
through
every sunrise,
every sunset.

It’s okay to daydream,
isn’t it?

It’s alright to feel
we’ll live forever,
isn’t it?

What is life
without dreams,
without fantasy?

Reality hides
in the shadows,
I know this,
but until life changes,
I’ll live in my fantasy,
knowing he’ll be beside me
eternally.
