You're a dream.
You're fantastical and exciting like nothing else.
There is no end to your adventure or spirit.

The very air around you infects my lungs,
Making me fearless, invincible.
I would remain by your side if the choice was mine.

But then I wake up.

With the blink of an eye, you're gone.
A deceitful illusion disguised behind promises of forever.
You were never here at all.

An artificial touch, a fabricated smile,
A voice that echoed off imaginary walls.
You existed only in my mind, as a daydream, a whisper, a sigh.

You will always be just out of reach.
