If You Really Knew Me
In my dream I remember running
from something I hadn’t known
No one seemed to notice
but yet I ran, with nowhere to go.
If you knew me, you’d see
what truly lies behind my smile is
a girl whose heart has been hurting
For more than just a while.
The dreams I have are heavy and
the thought of dreaming makes me blue
Even though they aren’t that many,
maybe I won’t live to see them through.
If you knew me, I’d be different
in your eyes and the world’s as well
Maybe then you’d understand
where the thoughts in my mind often dwell.
In my dream, it is easier
to live without the pain
I could laugh, and scream, giggle and run
without thinking of the worst days.
I find it funny,
that in these dreams
there was no concept of time.
I’d like to go back to that place I dreamed of,
that place that never left my mind

Hello! I am an amateur writer who spends most of her free time curating poems and writing little quotes. My love for writing is a really large part of who I am so hopefully this piece will showcase the emotions and vulnerability it intends too.
