You looked back and softly smiled at me.
Suddenly, everything around me grew silent and came to a stop.
those caring brown eyes.
that faint dimple.
the mole under your right eye.
All the small details that I fell in love with.
.
But my favorite will always be your voice.
It reminds me of the calmness of morning waves,
the peace that follows at midnight.
Even the most ordinary words sound like a melody,
a poem,
when they leave your perfectly-shaped lips.
When you called my name for the first time,
I realized the beauty of my simple name.
.
You looked back and softly smiled at me.
I reached out to grab your hand,
the hand that always perfectly matches mine.
But as soon as my fingertips brushed your wrist,
your entire silhouette disappeared into thin air.
All that was left was a powder of invisible dust.
.
I woke up in a puddle of tears, for the fifth time this week.
You used to be a living dream,
but now you have decided to live in my dreams.
You are a nightmare,
that I am comfortable watching over and over.
