Dream that’s been on my mind

Sometimes I have dreams that are so powerful that I wished I dreamed all the time. My dream was yesterday about this girl I used to talk to it was so weird yet so wonderful at the same time. I was with my family, specifically my nieces and nephews who are all very young under the age of 4. They make me so happy and it made the dream about 3 times better. I was also at my grandparents house, a place that I personally felt was a very relaxing place that is always calm and quiet , like it’s waiting to be lived in. In this dream I walked outside to a part of the yard with a small garden and I saw my nieces and nephew and my heart warmed. And then I looked up and I saw her. I was amazed. In real life she just posted about her getting a haircut which somehow stuck into my dream, her haircut made her seem so much better wow. It was like an upgrade of her but it kept all the certain parts I loved about her but with a refreshing twist. My eyes looked at hers and her eyes looked at mine. I felt like I could be really happy forever. Fireworks went off in my heart. She was playing with the little kids and it made everything just so much better. Like a nice puzzle piece that fit perfectly the first try. Just truly a moment of happiness that’s what it was. I felt like there was so much I wanted to tell her. But I was in so much awe all I could feel was the words ,”you got a haircut?” And when I said that she smiled, just the way I remember that made me happy. One of the things I’d always remember fondly of her. She nodded and I felt her open up to me, as if she invited me to come over and spend some time in my dream with them and enjoy this special moment with them. I honestly would’ve stayed there forever if I could. But unfortunately the moment I realized how lucky I was, the world woke me up and told me it was time to get back to fighting my own fight, like sports, work, and keeping the people I care about happy and in touch with me. I had woke up from my alarm at 6:55 and I had practice at 7:00. But the first thing I did was listen to music, music that magnified how I felt in the certain moment, Like how I’ll only find my perfect life in my own head and not in the real world, Like the people I want to love most are in my dreams and are always there, Like how I would always spend my time dreaming if I really could. Later that day after practice I had a small gap to catch some sleep. So I immediately took the chance and was hoping to be plopped back into my perfect fantasy. But no luck, I couldn’t even sleep. So I wanted to document this special dream so I could always remember how I felt.
