How can the absolute fact that
"I'd do anything to see him"
And the sinking reality
I've not made enough effort to see him
Exist in the same plane of existence?
A fuucking paradox
An impossible duality
But here I am
Standing in that exact reality
And the answer is me
There's no possibility
He hasn't noticed the same
And that truth destroys me
Absolutely
And completely
Why doesn't that push me?
