Fan Fiction

All that wishing

Was writing fan fiction

Guess I only made it up in my head

So the one true pairing was just a blue herring

Guess it wasn't really canon, my bad

I started writing at the age of nine

Let my imagination online

Spending ages crafting narratives

Parents said I was wasting time

Could never hack it with characters

So I'd take them right from fandoms I inhabited

Adapting them to make them mine

Based on titles that happened to stoke my fantasy

Practically wrote the annals for any random who'd flatter me

Went for broke dabbling in Pokemon, those were hardly read

In fact my actual successes were those with RPF

For those out of the loop, that means real person fiction

That means shipping existing people with no permission

Graphic depictions of sex, angst, emotional friction

Based not on facts but my own intuition

Is that fucked up? Yeah, but I found it fulfilling being

A source of joy for my readership out in the Philippines

Flash forward to the present and that's how I fantasize

But when my universe expanded, they had it decanonized (fuck!)

Got me lust-struck, certain I wasn't pining alone

All the other smut's worse, we got an archive of our own

Now I'm on the hunt, working through every line in my phone

To find some confirmation that my hypothesis wasn't overblown

Could this rapport be anything short of heaven-sent?

Friends said, bro, it's not supported by evidence

But what about the dialogue events?

It's nothing more than bait

Buying your investment, the more tension, the more you wait

Okay, maybe, but don't you see

Built a delusion round this OTP

Oh woe is me, I swallow blue pills like they was OTC

Don't need reality, I make my own TV

Hoping that senpai would notice me, that never happens

Hanging on longer than I ever imagined

This shit's designed to blow your mind

Guess that's why they call it head cannon

Perhaps it's time to move on to the next fandom
