My dream, last night.
So fast, and blurred,
People here, shadows everywhere.
I ran slow, then walked fast.
Stopped by shadows, confused by people.
I looked here, I looked on top.
Everywhere I looked, but couldn't make out a face.
A looming building with thousands of rooms,
People walked in, out the rooms.
Shadows everywhere I turned.
Such beautiful hotel, as everything turned crystal clear.
I walked into my room.
I looked around.
The phone rang and I answered.
"hello?", no answer.
I kept repeating "hello"
While everything slowed down around me.
"Oh hey", he replied, so clear, so depressed.
And I saw him, so clear,
I could've touched his face, so sad.
He's on the other line.
My dream froze, I knew something's wrong.
"what happened" I heard myself say
I miss him so much,
Why is he in my dream?
So fast, only in dreams can speech be this fast,
He mumbled, gibberish, and hung up.
But as I slowly woke up from that slam of the phone,
His words echoed, slowed, right in my ear.
"Real quick, wanted to tell you I still love you, bye."
