Everyone has that dream;
of just one perfect moment.
a kiss on the lips, from your
crush.
maybe even a shared sweatshirt.
a comforting hug, holding you close
enough that you can hear his heart
beating. him staring down at
you with those perfect blue eyes.
but no one ever imagines
the tears, the broken hearts
all those moments distance
memories.
because, you always wake
up
and smell the coffee.
