Dreaming of Someone Who Was Never Really You

For me, nothing has ever worked out. Yes, I always see the flaws in others. Except for those people I meet on the streets, I always keep my distance from them—until they eventually see those flaws too. After all, who would ever believe I've found that perfect her? Who would think I could present myself in a good light? In the end, I had locked myself behind these walls, believing you were everything I'd ever dreamed of. But then I finally noticed the signs I'd ignored my entire life, because I never thought he could be as bad as he truly was. In the end, I realized you would never be the perfect person I carried in my heart. It was all just a dream, and I’d gladly stay asleep forever, as long as you were the one I imagined I was waiting for. But that will never happen, because I’m always so naive. Maybe in another world, you really are my one true person—the one I’ve always imagined.
