Sometimes I Dream In Movies - Part I

Sometimes 
I dream 
in movies
like the one
I had 
about
my ex

And
it was not 
bitter
or
resentful
as one
would usually 
expect

Instead it was
sweet
and
satisfying
and made 
a very 
clear point

He needed
to take me
on a 
journey
and a
precise
message
to appoint

From what 
I could
tell
we were
friendly
and the
sun shone
bright
in the
blue sky

He took me
to people
who are close 
in his life
(although
with them
I’d never 
connected)
but they played 
a vital role
in my 
journey
so they 
deserved 
a proper 
goodbye

He told me 
we had to hurry
as we 
were pressed 
for time
so
I hugged them 
with love 
and 
showed 
gratitude
for my past
and I 
gracefully 
left them 
behind
