In My Head

Dedicated to Miss Dani Koenig

 

 

When I say

You’re too much for me,

I mean it in the most

Simplest

Of ways.

Not that you are too clingy or needy

But when

I utter that phrase,

I am

Simply

Letting you know,

Being this close to you

Is something I believed would only ever happen

In my head,

Because I love

To daydream.

It calms an anxious moment with a scenario I know

Is not real,

But somehow,

I do not have to

Watch you

From the backs of my eyelids anymore.

But you hold a beauty that is

Too much

For the front of my eyes to see

And it convinces me that I am living the most

Perfect daydream.
