killing me softly

By smearedXmakeup

He's stolen my heart,
and yet i can't stop thinking of you.
i had a dream last night,
that you kissed me with the softest lips God created.
you held me in your arms and whispered in my ear.
i can't say i'm inlove with you, for it's too cliche.
It's too fake and i haven't the heart to believe it.
You told me your opinion on the matter of my little girl crush,
and you said that you think of me too...
why did you have to tell me that?
I dreamed of it almost,
but that was only a dream.
In reality your truth became my nightmare For
it's only teasing me now.
To know that you had the same thoughts,
and to know that we could have been...
but now you're too far out of reach.

Is it possible to love two people?
No i dare not say that i love you.
I refuse.
Because i had a dream last night,
that you kissed me with the softest lips God created...

then
i
woke
up.

I can't live on a dream dear,
even if the feelings are true,
you're out of reach
My forbidden fruit, the angel from my nightmare,
and I can't stretch any farther.
because as soon as I wake up,
I'm being kissed by his lips,
and you're holding her in your arms.

    damn..this hit me really close...its possible to love two people at once, and i agree with Lynx, it makes it hard when you know you like soneone and they like you also, but you know that it wont ever be...this was a great write.
