“A Restless Dream” by Avery Plumley

Avery Plumley

I wake in the morning with an image in my head

He was there and I was there once again.

 

It is always the same boy

In the same place

And at the same time.

 

But he has never noticed

He has never looked my way

He has only seen the preferences in his head

 

I wake in the morning with an image in my head

Of a hopeless dream to see him again.
