♡11. It Was A Dream♡

It was a dream,
One where I was so carefree.
It was a dream,
One where I lost my memory.

In my hand was a photograph,
Of a beautiful girl.
“Wow,” I whispered. “She's so breathtaking.”
The picture asked, “Do you really think that?”
And shoved a mirror in my face.

It was a dream,
One where I was so carefree.
It was a dream,
One where I lost my memory.

Of a book, I read a paragraph,
Highly anticipating for its majestic world to unfurl.
“Unputdownable!” I exclaimed. “An incredible story in the making.”
The words relayed back, “Do you really think that?”
And handed me the crumpled up pages of the forgotten stories.

In my dream,
It was the cost I had to pay,
To love myself everyday.
I hope in reality,
I don't have to lose my memory,
To love myself unconditionally.

But, oh what a dream it was.

It was a dream,
One where I was so carefree.
It was a dream,
One where I lost my memory.
