in between molecules of oxygen and carbon dioxide

i dreamt a few days ago.
and i've been dreaming a lot less lately, and a lot more vivid when i do.
and it's making me realize that there was so much more to it than i knew.

but i dreamt that i began to think
and i dreamt she was moving to california
and i dreamt i gave her all my savings i had been collecting for months
and they had been kept safely under a tree on a small hill... back where i used to live when we were younger and the biggest problems we had were things like staying out past dinner time... or getting caught sneaking into neighboring yards.
i dreamt we sat in a claw-foot bathtub, the one from the apartment we used to live in
and i dreamt we did this while wearing yellow dresses.
i dreamt things were getting better and easier, and i dreamt that we'd make it to a time when things getting better and things getting easier meant the same thing. we talked about future plans: about how we both needed to get the hell away from the worlds we'd created,
and we talked about how we needed each other.

we still do: whether in dream or wake, this truth knows no boundaries.
