Like you like an arsonist
When I called you my perfect match, I wasn’t kidding.
you light me up. you make me light everyone else up.
I did as you asked
followed your plan
I notice your every move
but I don’t know you.
and it’s sad to think I’m the one who knows you best
I didn’t belong there and neither did you
It wasn’t our place, we didn’t celebrate holidays that mean nothing to us.
Turns out, we didn’t belong together either.
while drowning in a sea of strangers, we were perfect for each other.
but with the world at our feet, we saw the possibilities
saw how different we really are. what a poor fit we make.
I haven’t heard from you in years.
sometimes I’m curious and i want to look you up
talk about the past,how innocent we were, about how we got here and who we are now.
But I never do.
cause i don’t really wanna know.
I want to believe that you don’t need me,that you never think about me.
Cause I do. all the time.
I write to you
you’ll never know
even if I knew where you are
even if you were sitting right next to me.
