Reality


10 p.m.

I'm sitting here,

Waiting for you to call.

A pointless waste of time, 

Since I told you

I didn't want to hear from you at all.

But the truth is that I do.

And I miss you like crazy

Although you probably don't even care about me. 

4 a.m.

I wake up in a panic.

Because you were in my dreams again

And you're not in my reality.

I can't breathe because you're gone. 

I want to fix this but I can't.

It's out of my control.

I can't get back to sleep, 

Since my dreams of you 

Are more like nightmares. 

 

Everything repeats,

Every single day.

And what am I supposed to do,

Since now you aren't my reality?
