My Dream

I am the passenger
You are driving
We are alone
But you are distracted
Your thoughts are elsewhere

Someone else decided to drink tonight
Someone else decided to not think tonight
Someone else doesn't care
Someone else hates their life
Someone else is selfish

You know your place
You are the leader
I am trying so hard to tell you
You can't see or hear me
I don't want you to be alone

But someone else decided to drive tonight

You are lost in your thoughts tonight
I am lost in my words tonight
I am trying so hard to tell you
Someone else is lost in their decision
So much happens at once

I open my eyes
I am screaming your name
You are not responding
Someone else sees what they have done
Someone else just drives away

My words finally come out, but it's too late.
'I love you Ryan, you're not alone'
But now I am alone
You're now gone
And I'm here, waiting to wake up.


Awake.

It was a dream.

But you're still gone.

& I feel so alone.
