My Area 51

I'm right here,

yet not that near

Between me and you, dear

It's the entire bowl of fear.


I'm right here,

but I'll just be here

Don't expect me to get near

and whisper to your ears.


I'm right here,

and you're right there.

But together

we will bear

the burden of despair.


Because there's no way to share

There's no way I'd dare

to ever put myself out there.


The sign is clear,

one day

we will just disappear

like you never cared,

like I was never awared.


We don't have time to spare

not even for a glare.

Life is never fair,

and I am scared.


Looking up the stairs,

and there's no elsewhere.

No heaven for us,

even hope is rare.


I'm glued to this chair,

breathing in this air,

with a desperate stare 

at the future

where time is slowly

tearing

the word "pair".
