I wonder what you think when you see me.
Do your thoughts swirl in your mind?
Or are they neat and orderly?
Thinking one thought at a time.
Instead of thousands at once like I do.
They only seem to multiply,
Every god damn time I see you.
I won't say it's love that makes my thoughts fly,
But simple curiosity.
I want to know every single detail,
How could someone be so lovely,
And not belong in a fairytale?
I want to know how you think.
Every time you see someone like me.
Have I ever caused you to blink?
Because you are the only thing I see.
Have I ever crossed your mind,
Like you do mine at a constant rate?
Have you ever considered being mine?
Have you ever considered a date?
I do constantly, it's true.
My need for affection is to blame.
But even while I'm always thinking of you,
I doubt you ever did the same.
So no, we could never be and I'll tell you why.
Before we fall down this rabbit hole.
We think differently you and I.
We are not even two halves of the same whole.
