Unforeseen

It was only a dream
You had only stopped once
A glance that asked, are you alright?
I could've stopped at no
But I spoke for ten minutes straight
Words gushing out of my lips
Making them busy
To forget that I can't kiss you, yet
A smile danced on your face
My complaints amused you, didn't they?
If it were a different city afternoon
A different sky
A different room and a different dress
I would've been angry
At a man laughing at a rambling woman
Instead I fell in love
How did I die for an insolent grin?
You made it worse
A light touch of your brown fingers
On my restless hands
You tried to stop me but you only made me race
I can't forget your face
I want to chew your brain alive
I want to wipe off your smirk with my lipstick
I want to grab your hair and shake you until you love me back
But it was only a dream, I promise,
And if you ask me if I'm alright
What can I do but say yes and smile?
