Something That Never Was

I got attached to you

I got so attached to you, the way you move, the things that you said, the dreams you dreamt.

I got attached to your eyes, the way they lit up with excitement, the way they seemed to glow against the pillar of darkness surrounding you. The way they seemed to fade slightly when you were lost in thought.

I got attached to your comments, the sweet, loving things you say, the sassy comebacks, even the crude, nasty insults that seemingly poured from your venomous lips.

Your lips, the way they pout and move like silk against silk. The way they wrap around the words that roll off your tongue.

I got attached to you in many ways but you were just another character in a book... Another person I can never have.
