A Glitch

I've tried to borrow you from yesterday

Just to realize that I have been running with wild memories. 

I courted the thought of "us"

Just to find myself walking in darkness. 

I've tried to trust all of the happy memories

Only to be reminded of their final destination. 

I've tried to reach out to the Ideal You

Just to realize you were made of papyrus

I've tried to revisit our yesteryears

Only to find them buried deep

I've tried to leave them as quickly as I could

I've tried to believe that those past hours were better 

Just to realize that they were ruthless on my heart.

I've tried to help you win the war against yourself,

Only to realize "We" have become a collateral  damage 

After the hurricane of tears stopped, the sun rose and the dust settled, 

I've come to realize that the ideal you, was a glitch in my heart.

I thought you were all I needed, yet I stand today, still wanting more 

 Wandering in my soul  looking for the right glitch
