Happily Ever After

Was Shawn just a dream?  The best dream I ever had?  I feel like I have woken up and now I am in the real world.  It is harsh and cold and unforgiving.  There are days that Shawn doesn`t seem real.  I see his picture and think that he was too good to be true.  Maybe I made him up.  My thoughts are disillusional.  I keep waiting for him to reappear.  I keep waiting to wake up.  Or maybe it is actually the reverse.  Maybe I am hoping to reenter my dream state.  I want to go back to the world of make believe, where fairy tales are possble, where princesses exist and where the hero rescues his bride and lives happily ever after.
