bittersweet


I dreamed of you last night
I dreamed we got married in a colorful church in Mexico
We told my family, not yours
You gave me a ring full of flowers
We were 17 but completely in love
You told me I was the best thing in the world
And that no one would ever replace me
And I was bearing your child
Your sister came up to me and said
So? Did you do it? Did you marry your dream guy?
I didn’t do it. This is only a dream.
