Allusions and Illusions

I was blindsided as I blindly looked at one side of you.

I’ve always been a big picture person but when it came to you, everything became one dimensional and I was trapped in a handcrafted box of infatuation where all I saw and all I wanted was you to—

You didn’t love me the way I loved you and you didn’t fantasize me, but I romanticized you as an entity that extended beyond your human capacity.

I believed in that green light you radiated and in the warmth of feeling that was so close I could almost touch it but oh my G—

You can’t build your life around a human being.

The emperor of ice cream has melted and I’m left with a lost illusion.
