I Hope You Dream

Tonight, I hope you dream.
Your eyes shut tight,
Your breathing smooth and even,
And your body still.
Complete nirvana.

I will be restless the whole night.

I hope you dream about the future.
Flying cars,
Shining skyscrapers,
And shimmering streets.

Where am I in it all?

I hope you dream about your favorite things.
Flashy fast cars,
Action movies,
And all those songs from the 80s.

Did you even know my favorite color?

I hope you dream of wild things.
Impossible powers,
Neverending skies,
Made-up memories.

Am I in any of it?

I hope you dream about her.
Your dream girl.
The one.
The girl I could never be for you.

I bet she'll be beautiful.
She'll have bright eyes,
A charm that radiates off of her,
And a thoughtful mind.

Was I ever that perfect to you?
