like any
narrator,
i'm obsessed
with being
some one
else.

i am scared
you will tire
of hearing
me say
'i love
you'

You're really not that far
     it only feels like it

I only envision you in my mind
  because I cant see you with my eyes
I'm only with you in my dreams
   because its not a reality
I only hold you in my heart
  for our reach is just too far apart
Maybe I should let it go
  these memories become my throes

   Yet still they seem to make me whole.
just as they did so long ago
