You'll never be mine outside of my mind,
and that's alright with me.

I long too strongly to own your gaze.

I am quite sure that you are sweeter than a spring blue sky,
but skies split sometimes
and I already know that I couldn't weather the thunder.

And if you were to love me with any less strength than that of a raging sea
it would destroy me.

If you did not cast your body onto mine and burst like a volcano
it would tear my world apart.

So stay in my head, where I'm safe from your wide-eyed indifference.

Live in my imagination.

Save me the bitterness of your disinterest.

And I'll plead with a star to keep the wonder of your universe far from me.

My fanciful lover, my fictional friend, may we never meet beyond fantasy.
