Just a Dream

I slowly close my eyes

falling asleep at night

wishing you were here

but you're only in my dreams

 

I dream we're together

hanging with your friends

I'm smiling and laughing

we're all just joking around

 

You slip something on my hand

so we're now engaged

I'm so happy

you're all mine

 

But then some girl comes up

starts kissing all of y'all

starts screwing you

and you just stand and let her

 

I start to walk home

not knowing where I'm going

I run into a gang

I start kicking and screaming

 

I finally get away

run home crying

start packing my bags

and you walk in

 

You come up behind me

pull my hair

throw me againist the wall

and punch the wall beside me

 

You finally fall asleep

I finish packing my bags

I sit them by the door

and leave you a note

 

The note says

"If you're reading this

then I'm on my way home

I'm not going to have my husband

getting screwed by other girls

I love you to death and beyond

but I have to go I'm sorry"

 

I leave the note and my ring

on the table

 start my car

and leave

 

I pull into a gas station

I keep getting calls from you

I just let them go thorugh

deleting the voicemails

 

I'm about to pull away

you pull in truck in front of me

and block me in

so I can't leave

 

You say

"I'm sorry for the way I acted

it's all because I was drunk

You're the one I love

the only one i need"

I tell you to move

that you hurt me to bad

I'm going home

rather you like it or not

 

You put your hands on my face

kiss me for what seems like forever

and say "I love you"

as I start to cry

 

You tell that you hit your friends

and punched a hole in the wall

after you read my letter

you start to cry

 

You wipe my tears and I wipe yours

you slip the ring back on my hand

and say "it's only meant for you"

as you kiss me

 

I wake up

I'm smiling

I didn't want it to end

but I guess dreams eventually end

 

But the good thing is

you're really mine

and my dreams keep going

every time we speak

This was cute....and all relationships have their rough spots. No one is perfect and some do stupid things when intoxicated. But despite what they've done, if they come back for you in the end, then you are truly something special and mean something more to them. This tells a very great story that I"m sure a lot of people can relate to, thanks for sharing!

wow this goes from dream to nightmare to dream again... i love playing with the readers emotions as you can see with my writes "Don't Leave!" and "I'll Not Throw In The Towel (lyrics)" . I thought you did a great job with the effect here.

Nice job!

Wow, dreams sometimes pulls our feelings and heart out into the beyond. It's amazing what all can happen in a dream that is almost feels real. Do you know what I mean? I hate when I can't have the guy I'm in love with but only in my dreams at night. Whenever I have dreams of him, it's so amazing and seems too good to be true that I wake up with a smile. That smile always fades away when I realize that it was only just a dream. Great job on this! :)
