10. Far Away

P/N: I have never written a poem like this until yesterday and now here it is I got the idea of it after reading some heart-breaking poetry the other day. Do let me know in the comments what kind of feeling it reflects.

I run for him

He runs away from me

I pray for him

He still stays away from me

In my dream,

I'm walking down the aisle

He's standing there, waiting for me

Suddenly, I'm not the one walking to him

But a 'beauty'; that I never had in me

I open my eyes and realize

Maybe my chance is not over

My phone rings, I pick up.

He asks, 'Can I come over?'

I question myself, 'Why isn't he running away from me?'

Then I open my eyes and see that this was the dream!
