People.
Bodies.
Everywhere.
Going nowhere.
Talking nonsense.
Doing nothing.
Maybe one familiar face
but the others distant, unknown, faded.
Didn't particularly know where I was headed but, nonetheless,
wishing I were elsewhere.
Leaping out at any old stop,
I joined a crowd of suits pushing
past me.
I stumbled down the muddied steps,
not expecting to see,
a pale blue hoodie walking in front of me.
I held my breath in disbelief,
then your name came out in a choke.
You turned and my heart skipped a beat.
After all this time, I never thought I'd see your beautiful face again.
But you turned.
And it wasn't you.
It was the face of some randomer.
No, it was my mind tricking me into believing that it was indeed you
and that you're still around,
and that you still care for me
and that you still want me
and that you still love me.
Really, your love was just a dream.
And what we had was just a fantasy of mine.
And I was fooling myself.
Living a lie.
Bodies.
Everywhere.
Going nowhere.
Talking nonsense.
Doing nothing.
Maybe one familiar face
