too close

Too much a dream for me to dream,
But as real as you are to me,
It is still just a mirage,
The closer I get, the further you go.

I’m hurting deeply by each move I make,
By each move you take,
Don’t keep coming so close,
You know I can’t take it if it’s fake.

I can’t commit to something that isn’t mine,
I am not yours, yet I am bound to you.

Living each day as if we’re together,
And each day my heart shatters,
Like a rose, its petals fall piece by piece,
Leaving a dead stem in a glass box.


I love you,
But this way I don’t want to live.
We are already here, what more are you afraid?
Doesn’t it hurt already now?
We’re living as if we belong to each other,
My battery is low…don’t treat me so good,
It’ll just make the battery die…
