Chapter 70: not you

Chaos In My MindWords: 981

It wasn't you I fell in love with

it was who I made you in my head

the fantasies made up by me

at night, lying in my bed

illusion, perfection,

all I could ever dream of

but if nothing of all that's real,

what is it even worth?

every evening I hear your voice

saying words to me you never will

and sometimes I am so far gone

that time starts standing still

I feel your hand

where you will never touch

I feel emotions,

chaos, I feel so much

the longer I let myself drift away

the further I sink from reality

and that's when I start floating away

detaching completely from gravity

like castles of glass, so fragile

shattering if looked at too close

but bittersweet and beautiful

like deadly thornes of a rose

only the moonlight knows my desires now

the stars, they know my soul

the sky at night listens to me,

even after having lost control

Control of this fantasy had long been lost

as my once warm heart started beating cold

reality, a sword of frost

our love story never to be told
