An ideal world.

In an ideal world,

we would have met in a bar

Just drunk on memories

And we would have walked

To the bus stop.

 

In an ideal world,

You would have called back

And we would set a friday

For ‘Thank You’ Coffee.

 

In an ideal world,

we would talk for hours

not about people or ‘wyd?’

but about what makes us better.

 

In an ideal world,

our dreams would lead towards

the same destination

even on different roads.

 

In an ideal world,

after our fights you would come

with chocolate chip ice cream

and I would melt at sight.

 

In an ideal world,

you would reply to my texts,

call back at my misssed calls

and not keep me hanging.

 

In an ideal worldd,

you and I

would be

Us.

 

But even the air around us isn’t ideal,

So how could the world be?
