you're so much like me
yet nothing like me at all.
stubborn and headstrong
kind and independent
smart and funny.
how is it that i'd fall so in love
with you in a matter of minutes
all because you were familiar
in a world that is so harsh
and unrelenting and correct?
how is it that they say
you're terrible and offensive
because you joke around
just as they do?
how is it that they think
they know me and what's best for me?
how do they know
it isn't you?
