Perception

[mrmeval]

The person I thought I knew
was someone I made up in my head.

It must have been very strange
to hear some of what I have said.

I tried very hard to understand
that you were not the shadow I made.

I beat down the infatuation for the
thing whose foundation I laid.

But it was too late to learn who
you are; it doesn't matter what I paid.

I appreciate it and that is what I should have said to you a while back. ;)

I'd been getting more and more alienated from a person. When I realized what/who I thought they were was a fiction I'd created that then gave me a bit of leverage to try and connect with them. I was too late and they're no longer speaking. They're not even someone I used to know really.

I know this about Internet communication and I know I'm prone to it but I've been at limited capacity due to sleep issues so it had been difficult to spot.
