you're lost even when you're gong the right

last night i had a dream.

i drove for hours and finally told him,

i never want to forget.

he said he knew what i meant,

that things would be different,

he would be honest,

and things would be better.

i was wearing this jacket.

we were together at this place i've never been to before.

and we were glowing.

he said all the right things.

i was never at a loss for words.

we talked for hours.

then i woke up.

cold and alone.

p.s.

tonight, i can't sleep.
