Dreaming Girl with an Ephiphany

I met you but not in a dream
Nothing like this happens to me
How can this be real?
You’re perfect but flawed
In all the ways I need you to be
You make me smile
When I feel I can only frown.
In a perfect world it’d be you and I
But this world isn’t perfect nor will it ever be.
It could have been you and I
In a wonderfully amazing way
But you are taken and content
And so am I.
There is no you and I in this world
So why then do I try
Try to make something real that cannot be real?
And then it hit me
We don’t need to be together in this world
We’ll create our own
Where it can just be you and I
No one to keep us apart
No rules to be followed
It’s just you and I
And whatever we make of our world
But we’ll keep it our own little secret
Just between you and I
Because if there can be no us in this world
I as least want there to be a you and I somewhere.
