The Real You
Why can’t I stop
thinking of you?
You overtake my mind
when all I want
is to be left alone.
Your face haunts my vision.
It’s all I see when I close my eyes.
Your name is always on
the tip of my tongue,
yearning to be said aloud.
Your voice is all I hear,
there is never silence.
Whenever you are mentioned,
my heart beats out of control.
This all needs to stop.
I can’t keep on living
with you invading my everything.
“Leave me alone!” I scream.
But I know you will not listen.
Because what isn’t real doesn’t respond.
You are only in my mind,
for the real you will never acknowledge
that I’m even alive.
