A THOUSAND AND ONE WORDS

invisible string

i wonder if you still think about me

the way i still think about you

i wonder if late at night

you ponder what could've been

how we could've turned out

how different our lives would've been

if they stayed intertwined for longer

i'd like to think of you as my invisible string

the person i forever have a connection to

no matter how difficult it is to see

it still exists

but it's looking more like

our destiny is to run parallel

two pieces of string

forever unable to meet

held captive by their own fates

in the absence of their joint fate being created

and if that tiny overlap

was all the connection we are ever going to get

i hope it was worth it

i don't know if it was destiny

or fate that brought us together

but whichever had the frozen heart

to rip us apart so violently

i pray that there's a reason behind it

because right now

i don't understand

and i don't know if i ever will

i can't blame you for what happened

you can't control how you feel

like how i can't control how i react

but god what i would give

to have you back for one night

"have you back"

it's a funny phrase

because technically

it's impossible to have something "back"

if you never had it to begin with

just like how you were never mine

you could've been

you should've been

and if i had it my way

you absolutely would've been

but could've should've would've

they're all just possibilities

with a probability of none.
