His eyes so different from mine

Mine clear blue lakes

and stormy gray

His deep oceans

Drowning me

More and more

Everyday

 

His skin so different from mine

Mine cold as ice

and warm inside

His warm caramel tan

Melting my ice

More and More

Everyday

 

His soul so different from mine

Mine blackened in life

and death within sight

His strong and bright

Burning the dark

More and more

Everday

 

Our lives so different

We run the race away

Split and cracked down the middle

Until we cannot survive

So on my bed I lie

Hoping

One Day

Our paths collide

I actually had this piece come to me in a dream, the next day I put the pen to the paper. The last three lines are a complete retelling from dream.
