Wishful thinking

I see you, but you don't see me
Like a ghost of the future, hovering dark and dreamy
You fade in and out of the mist
Do you even exist, except in my wishful thinking.

I reach for you, but I can't touch you,
I feel you just beyond a star
Do you know how much you are all I ever wanted?
Is it too much, too soon?
Am I foolishly dreaming?
Just baying at the moon
Playing impossible visions like an elementary tune.
How I wish that I could realize my heart.
But it's only wishful thinking on my part.
