One step forward and two steps back.
My fantasy all lined with gold,
Now fogged with black.
I feel as if I am a dog,
Being teased by a treat,
For he is always just barely out of my reach.
I can't with stand the pain.
For I know we cannot be,
But still I fail to hide my smile,
Every time he looks at me.
In my attempts to call to him,
The words get drowned out,
By the restless wind.
Finally I gained enough courage,
to share my emotions,
Just him and I together,
I asked...
He said never.
Tired from my effort,
Wounded by his reject,
I slumped my shoulders,
Hung my head,
And collapsed onto the lush grass bed.
One last thought raced through my mind,
Letting out a muffled groan,
"I shall learn to walk alone."
