I woke up and saw you
The first thing my eyes opened
Like what I always used to see
This past year
A part of me had hoped
It was all a dream
Everything
You, not being here
You, leaving my world
Your eyes opened
I was confused
Is this real?
You hugged me
I felt his arms around me
I woke up again
The back of mind remembered
I left my room and went out
You were there
Sitting on the dining table
Like what always happened
This past year
You were smiling at me
And then you just disappeared
I've gone outside
I saw everyone but you
The sun was shining
So I ran, hoping
Just a few steps
and the sun had set
Just a few breathes
and now you're still dead
