Subconscious friend, di Laura Alaniz

Subconscious friend

She is no longer

Part of my life

I’ve moved on

My life is full

With friends

Who care for me

Yet in my dreams

She randomly appears

Our teenage memories

Hardwired to the brain

Though I’ve moved on

I will always care

Piaciuto o affrontato da...
