AN: Another poem I wrote, based roughly - U used the same title - off of i think i made you up inside my head by bittereternity over on Ao3 Enjoy!


I think I made you up inside of my head

I think I made you up, just a dream

Just a story told to no one else

I believe in heroes, and I believe in you

I believe in you, but I think I made you up

I remember you, I remember you beside me in the sun

But was it real? The memories do not fit

Are they even my own?

I think I might have made you up

You reach out and you touch my arm

You feel real

You tell me you are as real as me, but I wonder

Am I real?

I think I made both of us up

You see everything, you see me

But you've slipped away, you're slipping away

I want to ask you what it took, what it took to be you

Did that mean I made you up, that I need to ask?

You were not you for a time, I know.

Did I make that up, too?

I feel something, but it is not you

It is cold and unforgiving

It is telling me that inside my head, I made you up

I died, I woke up

You were there, you weren't

Did I make this up?

Did I make you up?

They tried to give it to me, they tried to give it back, and they gave me you

But it wasn't the right you

I think that maybe I made my version of you up

I see you, I see my legacy, and with it, I am well pleased

In the back of my mind, still sometimes I wonder

I wonder if I made you up inside of my head
