Living in a Dream

 I was living in a dream last night.
Told a stranger I want to dye my hair pink, live in Japan, and publish a book.
He told me to dye my hair.
He told me to write a book.
He told me to try it. 


I was living in a dream last night.
Told a stranger I can finally be a child in front of someone.
He told me it’s okay to be a child.
He told me it’s okay to be lazy.
He told me -the adult me- to take a rest. 


I was living in a dream last night.
Should I tell the stranger I want to live there again tonight?
