A Flame with no End

Truth be told he is merely a mirage.

A gift never to be given.

A harsh truth of the world

And yes I have considered what your about to ask

My overwhelming feelings toward him

But let's get back to the task at hand

Life doesn't want it to work.

Well that I can take.

I'm really quite uncertain

If there's something between us

That will cause me to to break

But I digress

He's a beauty that won't hurt me.

Because he won't let me close enough.
