You: maybe the opposite is real life You: it felt like that for a bit You: even in summer Me: real life is getting tricky to talk about Me: i dont remember the night we met as real life You: its hard for me to tell which night we really met Me: like kiss metYou: car met Me: i cant describe how exciting it was when you kissed me You: im so glad i did that You: it wasnt predetermined Me: i liked that you had me roll down the window Me: but then i had to drive away You: so sorry i didnt invite you to that party You: you left your own opening Me: to drive you Me: you were all i could think about that night Me: that night feels like the beginning of a dream Me: that i havent woke up from You: everytime were together it feels like a dream i know im in You: like lucid dreaming Me: it feels more unreal than real to me You: i cant remember that night as a whole You: it comes in parts You: other nights feel like part of that night Me: it feels like you appear and disappear Me: like a ghost or the morning You: it feels like youre everywhere You: like youre the air but no body You: an idea You: i would never had kissed you like that if i were who i was now tho Me: lol why? You: idk i think differently to put it shortly Me: can you put it a little longer? You: well maybe i would have. i think i think of things like what would be the next possible thing to happen after this. back then it was very in the moment You: but i havent felt so excited around someone new since then You: it feels like thinking of an alternate universe thinking of what i wouldve done now Me: that night feels like a moment that i didnt realize was such an important part of my life till looking back at it You: it felt so genuine then You: i remember it so innocently You: i forgot how i got there Me: that time, those relationships, that car doesnt exist You: that window Me: this window Me: it feels like im looking through a foggy window into these thoughts You: yeah
