High-Reaching Hope Leading Destructive Despair

Being Near It is impossible to say what Feeling is Stronger Attraction Nervousness Paranoia Or just wanting to wrap thou in an embrace for all the comfort that wants to be shown unto thee This meager attraction that has sprouted dwindles by what you see in another This case seems to be always present throughout these experiences A sheer passing of Anxiety courses through when near this conduit of feeling Of course, even at the Genesis of these feelings it was known what they were Now, it just grows and threatens to burst at the seams Ever expanding with every passing memory, Every possible moment that could take place between the two Every Glance in this dangerous direction The Memories How they haunt and stretch the Hopeful side Leading to a fantasy that cannot take root in reality Even if the seed has been planted The Watering will never occur by both In the same degree, The Paranoia is perhaps a more pressing matter Leaving this dreamer to wonder if their feelings are right in their place Or just a calamity that is sure to follow these rushing tides of sensations When your eyes are averted in a more hopeful and dreamy direction When a more realistic approach is so near Alas, I find myself in a pattern Something that has become most vexing This newfound desire seems much more realistic than the last few Although, saying that fuels a Hope that should not have, perhaps, ever been allowed to be conceived However, With the progression of things these past few moons That possibility of Hope growing is Becoming More And More Inevitable With it, comes an even greater chance of Despair That has ever been known By this poor stricken soul... Constructive Criticism is welcomed for this, as well as suggestions that might want to be made. Please and thank you!(:
