Limitless

An invisible love sits next to me
I lean on her shoulder
I sleep on my side.

Her mannequin face, a hybrid of
untouchable lips
and blind eyes.

Her skin is velvet, the most perfect
You've ever felt.
Well, how else would it feel?

For she is whoever I want her to be,
She is the love of my life
She is no-one.

The one I've never met
The one I never will?
The one others have claimed to be.

I have time to note
The passing of every minute
Slowly seeping away into the grass.

I sit and absorb the evening alone
These memories are my own,
The night has my full attention.
