The boy who heard wolf

I've shared my bed with many ghosts 
and yet, it's you and every 
should-have-been-but-never-has
that haunt me the most,
you were the truth –
both the question & the answer
and I was too afraid to ask,
fear is now the currency of my existence
and you're my most expensive hope.

Still, nothing hurts more
than knowing that while
I'm crying out my despair,
the only word that 
you can hear is
wolf.
