I had a surreal dream last night
in it you were there.
You slit my throat and it felt so right
to see my blood everywhere.
I choked on all my words,
Held out my hands to reach you.
You took two steps backwards,
Your face had a crimson hue
Slowly life was leaving me
and so were you in a way.
I had never before felt so free
and finally everything seemed okay.
Strangely enough I felt no pain,
there was no fear of dying.
Finally I didn’t have to explain
the reasons why I quit trying.
There was an odd look on your face
an expression I had never seen before.
You stabbed me a few times, just in case,
I wouldn’t hold on anymore.
And then I lay there without a breath,
a lifeless worthless thing.
It was the best kind of death,
the kind only love could bring.
When I woke up it made me realize
that this is exactly what you do.
I wiped off the tears in my eyes
because some dreams do come true.
in it you were there.
