Was it all a Dream?

Was it all a dream?
I can’t tell if it was even real
I cant move, my soul aches in its shell
My legs don’t bend
my heart is in hell
Please don’t speak to me,
I only remember your voice in my quiet room, saying such gentle words
I can't talk without thinking of how my voice soothed your pain
Took away the rain, let you feel happy again
Cant look at myself without looking through your eyes at everything you loved in me
And wondering why its all slipped away into grey
The hardest part of being apart isn't being apart, it's being together
And knowing this.
Was it all a dream?
Because I just can't stay awake any longer
