The "Stalker" Story

Sep 27, 2004 21:19

I watched you today. From behind a screen in which i could see so vividly, but was completley invisible to you. I watched your every move. The way you sat near the edge of the mirroring lake. How you closed your heavy eyelids to whisper with your savior. Everything. Sometimes i was tempted to scream out; to tell you my every feeling. You stood, and began to approach without the slightest clue. But as soon as i reached out to grab your hand as you glided by; my hand hit the thinly matted screen. And i realized. You were too dreamlike to touch. To perfect to inhabit my reality. And so i sit here, my tears not visible due to this covering. You are content with my not being there, you have always enjoyed a touch of lonliness. You are happy, even joyous. Yet i am not there. I got up. For closure, all i wanted to do was to walk by, and glance at you once more. As I approach your hand reached for mine, then suddenly stops.

Your screen was just as invisible to me, as mine to you
