Dream Boy

by Mae Anne Cortez

 

Cocky and arrogant,

Cool and mysterious,

He’s my dream boy

 

Hair like a raven’s

Wears black and green, never any other color

A smile on his face as he passes by me

When he calls my name, I try to act normally

He’s my dream boy

 

Once in my life, never out

Someone told me,

“He likes you. Do you?”

Glancing at him, he has that stupid smirk on his face!

In embarrassment, my cheeks went red as a cherry

He’s my dream boy

 

Every night, I dream of him

I wonder if he does too

No one in his dreams, no one else

But only me

He’s my dream boy
