Mirage

I reach out to you, you disappear
I just wanna feel you, you’re no longer there
Captivating my every thought
I’ll be a fly on the wall, just to hear you talk
Knowing you, but not enough
Longing just to feel your touch
Please, don’t leave
Stirring on my inner fear
Are you ever really here?
You deceive
Untouchable, intangible
So close, but so far away
Impalpable, imperceivable
You’re just a mirage to me
Wondering, pondering, the way you smell
Will this persistent fear prevail?
Struggling, punishing, dying inside
Thoughts I’m hoping will subside
Stirring on my inner fear
Are you ever really here?
You deceive
Light rays bend across my mind
Thoughts array, like decoupage
Phenomenal, deceptive, wonderful lies
You cannot be a mirage
