i pursue the unattainable, the barely imaginable, the stuff of legends, dreams, fables

i pursue you with open heart and lack of hope

no settling for less than the love that would make the dead weep, the heavens thunder, the ground spring to life beneath our step

you deserve nothing short of everything, the world as a bauble for you to do as you will

i deserve nothing but the need to make it yours

i don’t want to wake from this perpetual desire, not to see the impossible, but to remain firmly rooted in wanting nothing less than spectacular daydreams of you and i

i cannot settle for less than making the unattainable reality

even if it never will happen, my imagination is stronger than belief, the paintings of you and i as real as the dull water stained sketches that surround me

i just want you, my impossible love
