Dazed

Dazed

A Poem by Seth
"

This is... Kind of based on a true story.

"
Oh Elijah, my sweet Elijah. 
You've put me in a trance. 
A trance of love, of desire, of you. 
But you are 18 and I am 13, therefor, I am crazy. 
Yet all those sweet things that you said about me, how I was fun, beautiful, phenomenal. 
You see things in me that I do not see in myself. 
Is that what love is? 
I don't know, for the bitter-sweet, abstract idea of love is still out of my grasp. 
However, when I see you, I think that I have reached it. 
Is that insane? 
Are the cliches true?
Is age nothing but a number and is it sane for two people such as us to be together at such an age difference? 
It is acceptable to see a 21-year-old and a 26-year-old together, and that is the same age difference. 
So am I crazy? 
Am I insane? 
I like you Elijah, a lot. 
So is that all that matters? 
That we both like each other? 
Or does age cast a wall between us? 
Alas, I do not know. 
Love is nothing but a daydream anyways. 
And my liking of you feels like love to me, so I guess I love you. 
Or maybe I'm just dazed.
