People write songs about boys like you.

The ones with a secret to share but would rather die than say it.
Rather drink the poison than pour it down the drain.
Tell me to chose a door. One is freedom from lies and one is freedom from living. My life is a lie so which do I chose.
I think again of the perfect one but the one is not the right gender. A male cannot love another male.
But then why is it okay for females to love each other?
My dreams are worse.
I dream that his soft lips are exploring my neck and body. The sensations are enthralling. I reach to touch him but he shatters.
He was never there.

Here I am. A new girl in my bed. A head full of vodka and a heart full of pain. I look at her as she moans my name. Sapphire eyes, as precious as jewels. Shame to shatter such innocence but it will be a wonder if we remember this in the morning. I feel her hands caress my face then run deeper down my back.
I know it's supposed to be good when they scratch but when you are covered in scars they only rip up your memories.
I roll out of the bed and shove my boxers back on. I glance back.
She is lying there completely naked, trying to tempt me to come back.
I can't.
Such a piece of art should not be ruined not unless your heart is in the painting of the picture.
It is not.
I can only see him.
When does this get easy? Does this craving stop? Just to feel him come up from behind and surprise me with a passionate kiss... It would never happen. He is straight.
I am straight.
