Snippet #33

Time stops
and all I see is you

My breath catches
like the world has forgotten how to breathe without you

How can one person be so beautiful?
It hurts to look at you
But somehow, it heals me too

My heart swells
and I know,
without a doubt
you are what I've been waiting for
My reward
My answer

I reach for you
You reach back
Our fingers brush

and then...
you vanish

Where did you go?
Come back

Please.

My eyes snap open
The dream fades
And reality hits
like cold water to the chest

You're not here
You were never here
You were never real

And I'm wide awake
just me
and the silence where you should be
