the absurdity of us
I found you but I cannot keep you…
Do you know how many
times
I’ve said
This is it
That it feels different
That I’ve found it
My person
The one
Him
Well you don’t give me
That feeling
I know
It’s not
You
There’s no
Meant to be
For us
This is not one of those times
I will not say it again
Soul mate
It isn’t a possibility
I wont let my mind-
My heart-
Go there
You are far above
Any dream
Better
Then any prince
Your armor is far
Shinier
Then any knight
Better then any
List of qualities
More genuine
Then any romcom
Too good to be true
The real deal
I have to hold my breath
When I’m around you
One exhale
Could change everything
And the thought of you
Leaving
Is one I cannot bear
But one I know I need to learn to
Accept
as my reality
That men like you
Are not for girls like me
Someone like you
Has earned a damn queen
And I selfishly want to be
Her
But I know how it is
I will not mistake pity
For attraction
Kindness
For love
I found you
But I cannot keep you
The absurdity of
Us
The idea that
You
Are my destiny
The hope
That your face
Will be the one I wake up to
Holding you
Kissing you
Raising a family with you
Growing old with you
A nice thought
Blessed to know you
Blessed by your kindness
But frantically trying
To guard my heart
From falling for a
Dream

I have the inexplainable urge
To tell everyone I come in contact with
That I'm dying”
