So he likes me

But not the guy of my dreams

Not what I want him to be

I know a dream is not real

And a fantasy can’t always turn into a reality

Yes he is nice to me

Not in person yet

So we haven’t really met

I mean he is close to what I prayed for

I thought I was specific enough

Okay let’s start this prayer over

    This poem touches on something many people experience but rarely admit out loud. Expectations, dreams, and reality don’t always line up perfectly, and that inner conversation you show here feels very real.
