"The more I see you, the more I want you

Somehow this feeling just grows and grows,

With every sigh I become more mad about you

More lost without you and so it goes..."

Being after something that you know will never be yours

yet is only just in fact, right in front of you,

is quite similar to the torture Tantalus goes through

as he positions his life around reaching above him

to the vine of grapes that has been cruelly placed just beyond his reach by the gods.

Just so what is perhaps, just a fingertip away

is still beyond reach,

and therefore,

never to be possessed.
