The Feeling

"You know that feeling you get when you dream about falling? 

That's how I feel about us. 

We're on a straight collision course and we're about to hit the ground

and things will be over between us. 

Yet, I always wake up right before the impact. 

I'm buying us some time but eventually one day it'll be too late and no matter how hard I try I'll fail to wake up...I know it. 

We're slowly falling and gravity is pushing us down but I'm reluctant to face the ground. 

Instead I keep looking up at something that's not there anymore...

I keep wishing for unperturbed sleep to come over me once more 

so I can dream us up again."
