the blue to my sky

2

how can you love someone you've never met?

to trick your mind into hallucinations
telling yourself how their touch feels like your hands against your skin,
and how their voice is the only know heaven you can reach;

how every step further reminds you of a place you'll never visit,
or is it all just your imagination?

how can you force yourself to believe that somehow
they are the only part of your soul you're meant to find;

how to reach them feels like a dream disappearing with time;

how every breath you take feels like theirs against your skin,
or is that how seconds slow down
while you're counting in your dreams?

so are you still trapped within your thoughts
disguised by the shades of an unforgiving love?

or are you just so in love you don't realise
they're too far up the sky
while you sink further under the tide?
