Why go there?

I’d like to think
That you’d make me
Complete
But that’s my heart
Talking
When it should be
Listening
To what the mind
Is thinking–

Maybe it’s the
Chance to discover
The real you
Others already knew
Is what I find
Attractive
In letting myself
Feel this way
Or maybe it’s the
Prospect of you
Finally letting me in
Because I’m no
Longer considered a
Distraction
As the world
Fights for your
Attention–

Perhaps I have
Been mistaken and
Any similarities
Between us
Are only at the surface
The way all icebergs
Look the same
Until sonar shows
The truth beneath–

Maybe the practicality
Of the situation
Implied a false
Puzzle piece fit
Between us
Which was convenient for me
But inconvenient for you
