A Fictional Love

I read about you,
And you seem real,
But I know it isn’t,
And yet I fall for it,
And love you
In my way.

I follow you somewhere,
And get excited,
By a word,
Or a mention from you.
Knowing, behind the scenes,
It wasn’t you.
It was another.

It’s not real,
But feels so crazy.
I feel like it is enough to take my soul
And crush it.
Reality
Versus
Fiction
Is Love in the modern age.
A person, a character, a life,
Unreal to others,
But a safety net to me.
