Wishful thinking ?

Why do you play with my thoughts ?

You fill my mind each day ... but yet you don't seem to be real.
I reach out my hand but you seem so very far away.
But i know why.
Cause your heart belongs to someone else.

I try really hard.
But yet I can't do anything.
I try all sorts of things to get your attention.
But yet you don't really seem to care.

I yearn for someone to listen to me and not take me for a child.
But yet nobody really treats me like i am.
I'm just someone else to fill the void.
Nobody seems to care whether i am there.
Or whether i am not.

I am neither this or that.
You tell me.
Who am i ?
