Perfect Fantasy

When I saw you I pictured us,
No one could stand in my way,
When we talked I disappeared,
I felt as if we were in our own little world…

I could see you holding me, taking me on a date,
Long time friends we were meant to be,
You were my knight in shining armor,
Forever my one true north,
I had a glimmer of hope that you could be my perfect fantasy…

There’s no other way to hide how I feel,
I know you can see your effect on me,
So I keep wondering when it will be,
When you will kiss me and my inner sleeping beauty will arise…

All these things I never thought I could share,
I shared with you,
You made me laugh like never before,
When I was down your smile would lift me up,
So I looked forward to the time I would spend with you…

I never could have dreamed that you would move on,
One day you would come to not know me,
You didn’t know how much it hurt,
Every night I cried myself to sleep,
No matter how hard,
Or how long I tried,
I couldn’t get you out of my head…

You were the voice in my head,
The one I didn’t want to lose,
You were the perfect fantasy…

I knew that one day,
You would see your mistake,
You would come running back to my side,
You never did…

I cried until I could cry no more…

Then I realized,
You didn’t want me,
How could I be so wrong,
And now how I’m oh so lonely…

I try to think of your smile,
I try to imagine how it could have been,
Try to see myself in your arms,
But the image is clouded with pain,
Hurt,
And your sweet memory,
Bitter sweet…

I know now that it will never be the same,
Bitter sweet time spent with you,
I live in a crushed reality,
What a fool I am to think I could have you,
My Perfect Fantasy.
