Just A Dream
A Fantastic Delusion
He Was Everywhere
And Music Played
Every Time we Locked Eyes…
For A Second I Thought,
He didn’t Want Me, And It Baffled My Heart…
Until I Saw Him Smile,
Confetti Fell From The Sky,
I Longed To Be Babyish,
Azure Filled My Eyes, And I Felt Like A Freshmen To Love…
I Was Visited By The Guardian Of My Pride,
And I Began To Glow Like A Firefly…
I Was Bold Like A Rocket,
I Became Gregarious…
I Reached For Him And We Ran Away To A Confident Place…
Like Fireworks, Love Burst Inside My Heart,
Spreading Beautiful Joy Upon My Facade…
Suddenly I Became Awake,
I Laid In Bed, And Wished To Go Back To Sleep…

Not Just For Clean Up: A History Of The MCU's Department of Damage Control
Initially an organisation that seemed to exist to help the heroes of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, from Phase Four onwards, the Department of Damage Control has shifted into a more antagonistic role. Most recently seen in the Wonder Man series, the current incarnation of Damage Control seems to target superpowered individuals, regardless of whether that person poses an active or intentional threat.

💖There is something about this poem that gives me goosebumps. The childlike, raw reveal of your feelings for this person had me enthralled. 💖The aposiopesis at "locked eyes" and "baffled my heart" made me hold my breath. I suddenly felt relieved for you, though I am not sure why I felt relieved for myself as well. It was as if I too had a crush. I have a crush on your poem! 💖"Freshmen to love" was one of your most silky smooth lines. The assonance had me grinning.
I really love that "until I saw home smile //confetti fell from the skies// I longed to be babyish" bit. There's something so hopeful.
Gorgeous work! This is the type of otherworldly writing that makes a skeptic want to take a chance on love! I love every bit of it fam fam! 💕🫶🏾
Love the image and the word
The imagery of fireworks, confetti, and glowing like a firefly made me feel like I was inside the dream itself. Beautifully playful and vivid.
Super poem! Confetti Fell From The Sky, And I Began To Glow Like A Firefly… great lines.

Nice imagery you have in your dreams and poetry.
