She motioned for me to move I repeated my reply "Do you not wish for my love?" No I do not wish for lie "But we should be, cant you see" No I cannot, remember? "Please do speak, I need it for m-" I stood off the bench we shared She looked as she wished, naive "Was it you for who he cared?" I saw the white web she weaved "You are to he, waves of sea " Her gaze caught mine, and she sobbed "Never seek, time kills you and m-" And then she rushed forward and grabbed my hand "If I cannot turn back time and have he" "I wish to never exist" I combed through her hair to remove the sand "I'm afraid you never did, but only" "In my foolish head" And then she was gone and I was alone Without comfort, or imagination I walked to my place calling mothers phone I laughed, an empty reverberation "I'm sorry but you were right, he lost mind" "Never chase a hope, or dream" "Because I am put in physical binds" I felt my head start to gleam Giggling, I broke my phone on the ground "How can perfection be achieved!" I said "It cannot," I whispered without a sound Looking up, there was a solution laid "Goodbye," finally filled with happy tone An explosion of peace ripped through my head And that was all, a single piece of lead Evidence of my answer To impossible problems

This was fun to do but agonizing to make. It was my first time attempting to do poetic dialogue. I do not now how I feel about it yet. I thought it was at least interesting.
