Reality Or Not?

I've always hidden my expression,

I'll s-s-stutter but look you straight in the eyes,

So forgive me for this sudden confession,

'Never mind.' I'll turn away and say my goodbyes.

Sunset, sunrise, I lie awake in bed,

Just pretend - pretend that you're next to me,

Each and every word I should have said,

But then again we're not meant to be.

Silly me, vulnerable and weak, falling for you,

You travel from east to west just like the sun,

I long for your smile - blank stares as I'm blue,

I can't eat, drink nor sleep, what have you done?

What is this? An ache in my chest?

For I stand all alone in the rain,

You should know I wish you all the best,

But since only you can remove this pain,

I'll lie, hyperventilate, kick and scream.

Just to know you're not only just a dream.
