Nightmare

I dreamt of you again.
It was so realistic,
That my heart ached upon waking up.
I knew it wasn't real,
But something inside of me wished,
Ever so slightly,
That this was a reality.

Why after all this time,
Do you still haunt my dreams,
I don't want to wake up finding myself,
In the pain you left me in.

I don't want to see these phantom dreams,
I don't want to face the past,
I want to move on and live in the now,
And find someone who I know is better than you.

I know I can find someone better than you,
Someone who willing want to fight,
And find me worth it in every way,
So why do my dreams cling onto you?
