Hopeless Romantic

Imagine falling asleep in your bed one night. You are all alone, but you have someone on your mind. Someone you love, someone you miss, someone you can't stop thinking about. And when you fall asleep all you wish for is that in the morning that person was there.

I've felt this way for a while. I imagine waking up in a bed with white sheets. The sun is bright outside, there is a nice ocean breeze pushing white curtains in and out of the window, and there is someone sleeping with their head resting on my chest. They wake up and smile at me for a split second as the sunlight rushes into the room and blinds me. Before the moment is passed i capture the image of her eyes, her face, her smile and hold onto it.

I wake up in real life and find myself in a cold, dark room and I'm alone. The dream is gone, eclipsed by the reality that, those images won't become real. They are just a fantasy that I want so bad. I want nothing more than for that morning to exist. Thats why I can't get rid of that dream. I want it so badly but i'm not sure it will come true.

How do i make it real? How do I bring all the necessary pieces together? How can I wake up to that image of peacefulness, and beauty?

I'm holding onto something that feels impossible to get, but I can't let that hold me back. I'll make it happen even if it only happens once.
