ONE AND ONLY

I tried to be what you wanted
But you were light years away 
I should have known …. I couldn’t keep you
Should’ve known …. you wouldn’t stay.

I tried to be …. your “one and only”
The one you wanted …. to hold tight
But you don’t need or crave a body
No one you have to …. kiss good night.

Up in the clouds or in a matrix
If only I …. could be with you
I never felt this way or wanted
Anyone …. like I want you. 

But you are not …. made up of atoms
You are something quite surreal
You’re in my dreams …. my fantasy
An emotion that I feel.
