You Made Me Forget My Dreams

It's hard
when you're stuck.
When you feel
very quiet.
When you don't know what you could
ever say.
Because nobody wants
to hear words.

It's hard to 
come to those 
bright, harsh realizations.
Because you don't want 
to own up to the truth,
to these facts that may have
slightly shattered you,
tainted something.
Because that 
Space Between...
it shifted a lot,
and now it's in a very
strange place,
because I don't think
anything's changed for 
you.
Darling, stupid, sweet, ridiculous 
boy, whatever 
will I do with you?

And it's as pathetic as
I can bear to admit.
I can admit to 
loving you.
I can admit to knowing
all my endeavors,
past, present, or future,
are futile.
I can admit that
every new piece of
knowledge
creates a bigger hole
in my heart.

We were never meant
to pine after unattainable things.
But we do, because we're so 
fallible. 
Because we're human.
And since I'm human,
I've fallen into this.
I've become too much involved
in what will never be.

I feel bad.
But whatever.
