I’m thinking of a kiss
an unattainable one
your lips meet mine
through waves of energy
oh, how I wish
for even that one peck
pressed against my blushing cheek
I could have had it all
all I wanted was you though
to have
and to hold
from that day forward
I dreamed of you last night
you cried my name
I awoke with tears
flowing down
my pale face
I know why we parted
you pulled the trigger
to my fantasy life
the world that sets mine apart
from normalcy
we certainly cannot be
living together
in harmony
for what dwells beneath my surface
is a stormy soul
one that feeds off of the chase
where you failed to catch me
in my last regression
my warm lips remain untouched
they were waiting for yours
to meet them for the first time
yes, my pure kiss can exist
but you?
only in theory

sad….those breaks are hard when they are the one we are head over heals with…and we are left with our memories and fantasy….

I know those kinds of dreams.. I know those kinds of unattainable kisses… oh I wish I didn’t know. You’ve captured bittersweet feelings so well. “you pulled the trigger /to my fantasy life” … I liked those lines especially…

lots of neat twists here, stylistically and subject-wise. Really nice job of illustrating emotional yearning here, and love the direction you chose for the prompt. Thanks

Really heart wrenching to wake from a dream like that — wanting that relationship so much and knowing it will never be as one wishes. You captured the emotions in this one.
