Was it a love story? A grand adventure? A happily ever after? Piper doesn’t say.
She wrote this Note to her imaginary boyfriend—IT WAS A DREAM. Was the relationship the dream itself, or the kind that leaves you smiling when you wake up? That part stays with her.
Her mum, Kate, puts it simply:
“Was the relationship a dream, the happily ever after, the going on an adventure? That much she doesn't ever tell me. But I hope her dream came true—in her imagination or in reality.”
This piece holds space for all of it—for the stories we tell ourselves, the people we invent, and the quiet wish that maybe, just maybe, dreams do come true.
Piper is an autistic, learning disabled, and deaf artist whose work invites you into her world: honest, whimsical, and full of feeling.
Because really—
It’s good to dream.
