Long Lost - poetry

Long Lost

I'm your long lost romantic fantasy
But in reality you never actually chose me When you're in need of an escape for your mind
Afterwards I'm always the one left behind So many times I offered you my heart
You were always the one to depart

There's a connection I can't deny
In the end that's what makes me cry
Out of sight out of mind most of the time Coming back in with the loudest chime Then silently leaving like summer season I'm sure you always have a good reason

Lately you say one day the timing will be right
Then you want us to walk our way side
by side For a moment this idea takes control of me
Then I realize you're also just my romantic fantasy
It's easier to dream what could be with you
Than putting myself out there for something that's true
Maybe this is just a game we both learned to play
When real life turns difficult and way too grey

One lifetime isn't enough for you and me To get to what our dreams make us see There will always be something that will keep us apart
That will make us finish things before they even start
There will always be something that will keep us apart
There will always be something that will make it too hard

You're my challenge my inspiration my dream
My fantasy's long lost but never - ending theme
