Different

May 31, 2014

You say you’re different,

Not at all like the others.

Perhaps there is something special…

 

Foolishly, I succumbed to hope.

 

You’re just like me.

Sharing the same pains as me,

Living the same past as me,

Hiding the same love as me.

Different?

 

Same in how you left me in the past season

dripping in the tear of melting snow.

Different, only is the face of light that thaws me.
