Reaching for air

I keep reaching

for something I know I can't have

But I decide

To waste my energy anyway

All I want is for

you to look at me

The way you look at him

I'm searching for that

To hold on to

My arm outstretched

But I'm reaching for air

I can't reach

This

This thing that I dream of

Dreams that come

In the form of nightmares

Maybe it's time

For me to stop

And realize

I can't hold air

So I should stop reaching

But if you want to
If you want to show people

Then I grew up
My head became full

For you?
Is it
Too tight
For you?
Is it
Too low cut
For you?
Should I
Change
For you?
