among my fantasies
you shall reside
for you are not meant for me
so I will move on
continue upon this path
that has been set for me
resisting the ache
that now surrounds me
for I can never
give life to these impulses
that run through my mind
like taking your hand
letting you know I care
in that little thing
or hold you to me
to chase away your demons
with my strength
alas, that will never be
for although I wish to be seen
by your eyes, within your eyes
you will never see me
