I reach out to touch your shoulder.
Calm down.
Breathe.
I need to reassure myself.

I need to reassure myself,
that this isn't some cruel joke.
Some distorted reality,
or twisted lie.
That this is a wonderful reality.
My wonderful reality.

I need to believe that you are real.
Not some figment of my imagination.
Not some shadowy figure,
who I can't trust.
Not again.

I need to remind myself.
Remind myself of who I am, who I was,
and who I will never be again.
I can't go back.
I can't.
