How do I Resolve Unsettled Matters through Dreams?

As the seasons pass by I try to imagine living through them without you by my side,

 however, I guess that’s unneeded because you always find a way to haunt my dreams, 

and although I awake to tears trapped inside my eyes ready to be let out,

 I still wish you would never let me go. 


I heard contact between humans is supposed to show us that we’re real, 

but I had always refused to believe and continued to live in my dreams alone and chasing my shadows, 

Though now I'm entering my dreams to chase after you, wishing you were still real,

 So please never let me go. 

  

I had married myself to a desolate space, 

but soon learned light would never shine through and you know I loved chasing sunsets with you. 

So please never let me go. 


My stomach unsettled at the thought of you, 

But twists and tugs at our nerves were our only way of fun

And though your unexpected appearance induced love and innocence in this world of wonderland, 

This joy, departed when the sun peeked through and shun to my eyes,

And although I wake up in cold sweats and chapped lips I still always whisper;

“Please never let me go”

A poem about feelings of guilt and regret so strong after getting out of a toxic relationship/friendship, it starts haunting your dreams.
