Disenchanted by Laney

disenchantment: (English) Singular Noun (plural noun-uncountable) 1.the act of disenchanting or the state of being disenchanted. 2. freeing from false belief or illusions

You say I don’t exist
Yet I lie here in your arms
So how did I end up here
Once I fell for your charms?

All the times I wanted you
So close and yet so far
I could almost reach and touch you-
Like grasping for a star.

I listen to your heartbeat
And feel the breath you take,
I touch the warmth of your skin
As I lie here and I break.

But when you talk I hear you
And tears fall down my face,
When you say I that I’m not real
That I don’t have a place.

You gently kiss my lips
And run your fingers through my hair
So why did I feel these things
When I’m not even there?

To you, I don’t exist
And yet you held me tight,
As the moon left for the sun
And morning replaced the night.
