My Bad Dream

My Bad Dream when he looks at me he sees nothing feels nothing I'm not even on the level of a friend he gives his dog more affection and yet I kept going back for more until one day everything changed I looked around and realized he takes my love for granted and he isn't ever going to change because I've given him no reason to he offers me nothing and yet - I stuck around there is no future, no promise, no love only boxes strewn on the floor still bearing the gifts I gave him inside a fantasy relationship built out of dreams and only one-sided my hope, my love, given to a thought with a name and when he rejects me one last time I decide it's time to let him go he was never even mine to begin with or did any of this exist at all maybe he was only my own bad dream
