I Dream Of You
Dreams have always fascinated me. I liken them to a portal to another realm…. But it leads to you. Your subconscious manifesting the thoughts and desires you won’t even admit to yourself. By that logic, the better you understand your dreams – the better you understand your own mind.
I studied dreams extensively when I was younger in an attempt to do just that. It enabled me to analyze my dreams with greater accuracy and, in certain cases, even control them. The latter I only did when the situation completely demanded it; for the rest I prefer to simply observe and pick them apart later.
It came as no surprise then when I started dreaming of you... You were already the first thought on my mind when I woke up and the last thought as I fall asleep. Dreaming of you so frequently only confirmed that which I already knew – that denial was no longer going to cut it.
That was when you and I started sharing our dreams and discussing them. It made me nervous to have you prowling around so close to the truth, yet I couldn’t resist the opportunity to take a glimpse at yours. I just took it upon myself to omit certain details as to not make it too obvious how hopelessly in love I am with you. A part of me was hopeful that you might have been dreaming of me too - not that I would ever ask.
Now I have reached a point in my life that I thought to be impossible... My dreams have become reality and I have you by my side. I awaken from my dreams to find you sleeping in my arms. Proof that not all dreams are out of reach; because you ARE my dream, my love.
