I peered through the window
Caught a yellow light
I longed to stand in its warmth
Caught a wave of nostalgia
I borrowed deeply-sold feelings
Caught a glimpse of fake perfection
I wanted to feel the imitation life
Caught a case of the reality blues
I smelled the roses
Caught my sleeve on a thorn
I drove on past the window
Caught my breath
I woke up
Caught the sign ahead
I learned hope will be closed
