Parallel Lines

I wish to cradle your heart in my hand

But I’m not strong enough to hold what I don’t understand

On a spectrum we’re on different ends

Maybe it’s best if we were only to be friends

Your voice is now my favorite song

It’s on repeat all day long

I thought I’ve seen it all, but your smile makes me think of so much more

And a gaze that shakes me to the very core

I’ve never really liked my name

But hearing it from you, it’s not the same

I feel all this, but I can never let you see

Because your heart deserves a whole lot more, than a broken girl like me
