Online reality

Something has changed.

Forever.

I can feel that it has.

My reality has shifted so completely.

Back to where I started.

You were so real under my touch -

And already I can feel the memory slipping away.

Was that a dream or reality? A fanfic?

Was everything just in my head?

Am I losing everything?

The boy that changed my world,

Now existing from my perspective

As only a green dot on a screen

A profile picture

A few messages back and forth.

It's not fair.

He deserves so much more than that.

But how could being online

Ever capture what we had in person?

The devastation.

The heartbreak.

It's going to be a long summer...

A long year.
