dreaming of things that don't exist

I had a dream we were together
it was perfect
but when I woke up I remembered
that what we had was gone
and I got this uncomfortable feeling in my stomach
because I was never going to feel the way I felt before
I was never going to have your hands on my skin
or have your arms thrown around me
like they used to be
I'll never make you laugh again
and that breaks my heart
because your laugh is what had me falling for you in the first place
and we'll never talk like we used to
or do any of the things you said we'd do
the things I patiently waited for
and we'll never talk on the phone about wanting to travel the world
or about stupid stuff that had us both laughing
those were the days when talking to you was so easy
when you'd rant about your opinions
and sometimes about how you felt
but one day you didn't talk as much
you'd only say a few words
and that was when I knew things had changed
that was when I lost you
even though I never really had you

The brighter love burns the more damage it does ....I have been scarred more by love than from hate, nicely penned!
