Mirage

You approach me 

Like seeing this beauty

In a far off place

A mirage of colors

That only pushes itself away

When one gets too close

Afraid to be seen

Like a phantasm 

You thought you saw

Pushes you more

As you try again

To approach from another direction

In hopes to attract 

Another glimpse facing you

Miles down the road

Pulling you in

Getting closer

Still pushing away

You try and try and try some more

To distract 

In hopes it will just stop

So you can admire what you have been seeing

Begin to wonder

Will you ever catch up

Of something moving so fast

Repealing so hard

Like opposing magnets

Trying to convince this beauty

To stay for awhile

Stop retracting from you 

Maybe one day you will

It will stand still
