Hopes of a Brokenhearted Lover

*Hopes of a Brokenhearted Lover.*
I  told you I loved you
And while you couldn't help the laughter
I couldn't help the pain
The pain of dreams filmed with you,
The pain of seeing you every blessed day,
The pain of wanting what had become unnecessarily forbidden,
The pain of you being so close but light years away.

I still love you, though,
'Cause thoughts of you still calm my troubled nerves at night,
Being with you gives me sanity,
Talking to you is as close as I get to freedom.

So, I still hope against reality,
I still hope against hope.
I reassure myself by thinking the future is undefined,
As pliable as wet clay.
This river has swept me away once before
But you can't step in the same river twice.
