Protected: “I can…”

I can kiss you, hum your name and gloss over your lips with my tongue, and grab at the back of your neck — it doesn't mean I'm the only one.I can lean into you at a movie, slip my hands into yours and feel us inter­twine our fin­gers, but it doesn't mean we stay that way when the lights come up.I can sleep with you, know your face when you sleep and how it looks when you dream and your eyes go back and forth faster than I can keep up but that doesn't mean you will be there when I wake up.

Why did I have to wake up from the dream…
