Written about a boy I like. He doesn't know. Hopefully, it stays that way. He's too damn good to even look at me.

You see me.
But do you look at me?
Your gaze travels through me and I am lost.
In my dreams, a vision of us together but nothing more.
You're the most beautiful creature I've ever seen.
I'm so taken by you.
This obsession grips me tightly and I submit fruitlessly.
I know what I am.
I live with this reflection every day, I loathe it.
I cling to these false fantasies, these hopes of a better life filled with love and acceptance.
I lie to myself.
I hide behind a smile, a laugh, screen full of characters and symbols, anything to disguise who I am.
You shine in every aspect of life.
I am blinded by your light, your glow, that glimmer emitted from your soulful eyes.
I'm in love with you.
Everything about you.
I'll fabricate emotion embedded in a smile and pretend that you could actually love me too.
Masochistic behavior, let me bleed openly.
Our day will never come.
