You fade in and out
Like a star whose level of brightness can only be measured
When you're not looking directly at it.
You clog my brain
With thoughts of your cynicism
And with your ability to wash out important things
With unimportant things
As if to cleanse yourself of anything
That would ever truly make you happy.
(Disregarding things that cannot be labeled,
Because labels are what make the thing exist,
Not the thing itself.)
...Or so you like to think.
"Life is not a game."
You say.
Though I know how you play.
Though I know how you play.

Sick opening line (because I'm an astronomy nerd and took it in college). And the ending brings in character depth. Well done. Good sense of timing, as they say.
Why thank you, BB.
(Never took astronomy, but I always wanted to!)
