My eyes dip closed
as I gingerly hold her close,
It's like a stupid romance ideal
in my head
though it fades fast
when my eyes open in the morning
'Just a dream, huh?'
I stare at the wall across from me
and hate the fact that I still see her
that I still feel her as if she were right in front of me,
huddled close
I'd given up on dating and women
yet all I could feel was my heart
half in my throat
and all that I can see is her,
hair suddenly let down
yet she's not dressed up at all
Tsukimi looks as if it might be some other day
at all
and doesn't seem to mind
other than a hint of nervousness that clings to her
as I lean close
I hate this
she likes my brother that way,
not me,
and I'd given up on women
yet when my eyes close slightly
as if to fall back asleep
all that I see is her again
as if my mind's not done yanking me on a chain
I groan in frustration
as I push out of bed to finally begin the day
and shove that 'innocent' dream out of my head.
