real dream

the other day i was talking to adam about an idea he has for a photo project
involving ex-girlfriends and ex-boyfriends.
that night when i was sleeping
i had a dream that my ex-boyfriend was teaching at the same school as me
he was walking with his kids through the hallways
and i was watching from afar,
feeling sad
because i knew i couldn't talk to him
then later i was outside on traver road talking to a friend
he walked by with a girl i think was his girlfriend
they were holding hands
he said hi to my friend
and i was staring at him
but pretending that i wasn't.
i woke up feeling sad and uncomfortable.
