This is for you... my pipe dream.

The Fallen
~Inamourada

Something so beautiful and wonderful is so close,
I can touch it...
But it's still impossibly out of reach.
The sweetest of dreams, so real...
Never to come true.
We are both creatures born of the night,
And the same blood flows through our veins...
Yet we belong to completely different worlds.
Loving you is torture,
A burden I'll gladly carry 'till the end of time.
My denial no longer exists, I've accepted fate...
The planets will never align for us.
So allow me the small joy of loving you from afar,
Beyond and outside the treacherous walls of your heart.
Just let me take comfort in your arms tonight,
One last kiss before we drift into slumber...
The silent world where nothing matters;
The only time we can truly be together.

You're so broken, love.
It sickens me to know I'd die for a taste
Of something that could never live.
Still, I ponder what could be...
If you could only open your heart to me.
[Or anyone else, for that matter.]
