The Perfect Dream

THE PERFECT DREAM

As a teenager, she always dreamed

of being with the perfect guy

She had a few crushes in college

but never spoke to them coz she was shy

She got attracted and started falling for someone

but never had the courage to speak out her heart

When she did express her feelings, he rejected her

and she was crushed and torn apart

She was lonely and depressed

and cried before sleeping every night

Till her guardian angel came along

and filled her days of darkness with some light

He taught her to live and be happy again

she learned to smile again and be cheerful

He was everything she ever dreamed of

and he made her feel confident and beautiful

He was her knight in shining armor

the sweetest, nicest guy she ever met

He was gentle, loving, caring and kind

the best thing that happened in her life yet

Through thick and thin, he was there for her

his love was genuine, compassionate and tender

He gave her infinite moments to cherish forever

he never lied and was never a pretender

She always thought he was too good for her

how much he meant to her, she could never confess

She could not imagine a life without him

he was her perfect dream nevertheless

But then reality intervened and she woke up

realizing it wasn’t real and never mattered

She was lonelier now more than ever
her perfect dream was now shattered!
