Flirting With Realities

Let me sing you a verse
how we are together
in an alternate universe

Because in a dream
you admitted you were in love with me
then I woke up to
you hugging and kissing me
only when you thought I couldn’t see

Latch key
go in without me
from my hand to yours
where none of this feels forced

Oh, take me to that plane
where I can look and have no shame!
Because over here
white teeth, clear skin
surely is god’s greatest sin

But now
only in dreams
do I find you where I sleep
so I ask

What’s the point of dreaming
if it doesn’t come true?
