In My Dreams

a poem by Gracie Palacios

The dreams I have,
doesn’t come close
To what I need from
you the most.
See, in my dreams, you
are the perfect man
But in reality, for you
to care, you barely can

In my dreams you are loving me
But when I wake up,
you are there to see
The tears that fall from may face
Because you’ve left me alone in this lonely place.

You see, I loved you from the start
But I should have known
you’d break my heart
I guess it wasn’t you I loved
But the man I wanted you to be and dreamed of.
