Realist

By the end of the week, 

I just want to have you 

In my line of sight again. 

I want to feel the week’s stress 

Fall off my shoulders as I take you in. 

I know it’s not realistic for us. 

Not when I never pick up, 

Not when I never call, 

Not when I never go out. 

I’m hanging by a thread here, can’t you see

That I selfishly hope you’d want me, anyways.

That you’d accept me, flaws and all. 

But I know you won’t. 

You can’t tell me it isn’t a nice thought, though.
