a dream

Unexpected was your presence,

We have not talked for ages,

But somehow I yearned to approach you,

Confessed about feelings I never knew existed,

I never thought you’d care,

But you told me you loved me too,

Together, on the beach, we watched the sunset,

I wished we could lie there like that forever,

But I lost you when the waves came in,

The salt of the seawater stings,

A sudden jerk and I woke,

It was but just a dream…
