An Unreachable Dream

  • Dedicated to My lovely sister
                                    

I was crazy for you in that dazzling sky.

Thought my heart would burst, and that I could fly

And all I knew was,

 I wanted to find a way

For once—I didn't want to drift away


But I guess I was wrong, or somebody lied

Because you were no sun in some dazzling sky

You just turned it off,

Didn't mention an end.

For the first time—I really wanted to cry


When we laugh at you, you're cleared of blame?

Of course you've moved on...in an obsessive way.

I called you pathetic

You called me the same

Pathetically—it set my heart beating again


Whatever I try, I just won't believe

That what happened was more than someone's dream

But the frayed edges take place

Grinding ghosts in my face

Why. Can't. I. Let go?


You've got a friend, and to look at him burns

I want to feel, but I can't find the words

He's so much to want,

An unreachable dream,

And I can't be whole—not with you up my sleeve.


You make me angry, and I want to scream

I put so much hope in my dazzling dream

Pathetic and lost,

Won't accept the cost,

But now—I only want to dream again


So, to break my grip, I have one last hope:

I want to let go and stop trying to cope.

I don't want to want you,

Don't want to feel you,

I'll just be your friend—who's no flirt and no fool.


The lag-behind of your budding dream,

The unaccepted in your remarkable team,

Stranger, who doesn't leave and can't stay.

All I know is—I have to walk away.
