Parallel lives seem so close yet cannot coexist
If I told you that I love you
Without ever knowing your name
Would you hold onto my hand
Knowing everything could not be the same
We seem to walk side by side
Sharing no more than a smile, a quiet glance, a longing gaze
I want to be everywhere you are
But I am so distant and far away
Every time I see you my heart melts and breaks
As I am forced into my own personal dismay
Because how could you see me in such warm regard
How I have fallen so fast to your entire presence thrusts my life into unbarring serenity
I want to taste and swim into the warmness of your heart
I hesitate because it is a dream I cannot believe
Because I am soiled with grief
A grief that I am always the abandoned
Dropped off on a desert road as my father drove away
Barren as a Mother with no biological children
To experience your touch would have me die happy
To be enwrapped in your skin would send me to heaven
But as an angel can never love a scolded hells beast
I am buried beneath my silence
Never to walk up and speak my heart's truth
We live parallel lives that walk so close
Yet cannot coexist together
As you pass by I am in suffering self-loathing delusions
