The Blue Fairy
Loving someone is a spider web
that you walk through, unseen
but felt. There is a hollowing
out an indelible sense of the other
taking residence.
Not being loved
back is being left hollow
You are the problem,
and the solution can be found.
Otherwise, there can be no happy ending.
The Blue Fairy is at the bottom of the sea.
If you wish hard enough through the ice
of your emptiness, through 2,000 years
of emptiness, until the world dies,
and you were what was in the beginning.
If every synthetic fiber cries out,
and you release yourself
to the strands that only you can feel,
to the dreaming, to the perfect day
you will still never be a real boy.
