i had too much to dream last night

i'd give anything to go back to sleep

the hangover like nothing I’ve ever felt before

it wasn’t from tequila

it was the image of you

being here

being able to hug you

hear your voice

we laughed together

you watched me grow

held my hand when I needed you most

visions of what life would be like

played in my mind for what seemed like forever

i woke up to emptiness

how quickly the touch of your hand escaped my mind

the sound of your voice

an echo I can’t seem to replay

i had too much to dream last night

i’d give anything to go back to sleep

just someone learning, unlearning, and laughing through the chaos.
