Choices

This is the second time
You've come in my dream now.
We met at your college this time.
Which was located in a place
I remember from the mountains.

You were attending your 
Classes. Surprisingly I was 
Attending too. My homie was 
Roaming around in his own.

We stole glances now and then.
For some reason, it wasn't 
Awkward at all.
In fact, we mysteriously sat
Together, had lunch and
Read a couple of poems.

He asked me a couple of times,
'Who's she?' I couldn't tell.

Then, we three roamed around.
Talked to one of your friends 
Out of suicide.
Then we saw a rain-soaked 
Path and followed it.

We three were climbing a 
Mountain in a short while.
But when I reached the top,
Found myself alone.

Did I lose you two? 
But why? Surely,
Not because I was fast.

Do my choices have to be
This exclusive? One of you 
Against the other?
Finally to end within myself?

Do I have to be forever 
Alone?
