Hairbreadth of a distance
from the illusions I recreate
Stone's throw
from your abuses indiscriminate
The chasm where your breath
still fogs my conscience
Blurring me ever more
to the idea of self-respect
Cloaks of names, emotions
identities, relations
A thread coming unweaved
with each needy tether
Mirage of love
I see within myself
Making me lose the sight of the dreams
I could once reach stretching my blink
Time to get you off the pedestal
I built on my fluttering beats
Time to distance myself
from what I feel
Lest you keep taking me
down the granted glen
Too much of a price to pay
for the one crime
Of falling in love
again and again
