film.

CINEMA DREAM

I run through the halls

that lay secretly in my head.

Of cobblestone patterns

and hexagons shapes.

A movie drones on in my eyelids

of endearment and other foolish things. 

The reel forms a cinematic snake

upon the floor.

I hear a repetitious rhythm as my feet

hit

the

ground.

 In the

trapdoors of my thoughts

It's all black & white.

I continue towards

the boxes of things yet to be spoken

waiting behind my lips

to find a film strip 

which I grab and press against

 the window of my mind

to catch the moonlight.

A boy and girl

appear transparently in love.

Displaying what I can only

wish for.

Inwardly I smile.

My hopes appear

rectangularly shaped on

thin cellophane like strips.

"If only..."

Fluttering my eyes 

I'm sent spinning back to reality.

Another

 day 

wasted

 on 

dreaming. 

I never thought

I'd be a few months away 

from starting my second

semester as a sophomore

 in college and still 

have never had 

a boyfriend.
