Musings of a Nobody

You're in my dreams

I wish you wouldn't be.
For you already consume more of my thoughts than you should.
Yet you must return night after night, to feed the flicker of hope for an impossibility.
Cause while you live blissfully in my subconscious, I must contend with the ache that seeps deeper into my chest with each fuzzied image of touches lost and adoration that will never be mine -
Except in this mind. Creating visions that leave me waking with your name on my lips and a burning loneliness to echo endlessly in the hollows of my ribs. 
Because it's so much worse to watch you kiss at her, with the image of you kissing me lingering in my eyes.
