Your love feels like a longing
I almost touch it but don't
I get to you, against all odds,
Only to find you in another castle.
Your love feels like a longing
I almost reach you but don't
I hop times, spaces, Lives to get there
Only to trip over another trap.
I almost find you but don't
Making some sense in your absence
Only tunneling my thoughts endlessly.
Your love feels like a longing
I almost get you but don't
If you say yes, I say, I'd fight dragons
Only you deride a desire, heartlessly.
Your love feels like a longing
I almost change for you but don't
I try to become what you need
Only to lose you, then me, constantly.
Your love feels like you oblige
I almost believe it but don't
You may walk back to the starting line someday
And when you do, you won't have my company.
