You were in my dream again

and in the morning when I woke

I felt a loss unknown to me

as inside my sheltered heart broke.

–

Your presence lingered longer

even as my slumber faded.

As I realized you were not here

my distant heart grew jaded.

–

I knew without a doubt

I would not see you again

as you were gone forever

there is no if and when.

The blossoms outside my window

are beautiful indeed,

but my allergies soon make it

impossible to breathe.

You aren’t that different

from these adolescent flowers;

since being in your presence

is more unbearable by the hour.

I never knew that was how you felt

and I don’t understand how

since our opportunities were equal

yet we are not the same now.

Whatever you thought was happening

is not at all how it went down

an the victim that you always play

is that little boy who makes you drown.

If only I could see the world

in the tattered way you do

then I might understand the way you are

and why you do the things you do.
