Love Poem: Awake

Awake

Awaken by a terrible dream
With a sign of struggle between you and me
As though it may seem
The dream becomes vivid and clear
Only for a second because your voice is near
I begin to hesitate as you kiss my face
Cause their is someone that has taken your place
All that time you were gone I felt lonely and unsafe
It wasn't a choice it just happened by mistake
I guess it was meant to be or it was fate.

I couldn't figure out the empty pieces of my dream
I never thought this decision would lower your self-esteem
Cause all I can remember is you being hurt and crying
But when I saw your reaction I felt like dying
Never knew that you would have came back for me
Cause this dream only reflects my reality
 
In this dream towards the end everything becomes clear
I figured out the reason why you left me dear
Cause even though someone has took your place
You couldn't let me go but you had to
So we said our good-byes and you kissed my face
I hugged you which seemed like forever
Your soft lips I remember everyday
But letting you go was my biggest mistake
Because I woke up crying and you weren't there
Only to realize that this was no dream
That I was facing reality the whole time.
