the un-question 20101004
04/05/2020
on that day, I saw you and my heart fluttered
I was a moth, looking at a lamp, enamored
I wanted to float around you in circles
'til I get consumed by the flame of your candle
but I quickly snapped back to reality
when I realized there's one uncertainty
and unless that mystery of yours unfolds
I'll keep my distance with my own warm hands to hold
I didn't know if I'd leave this to chance
or rather, risk cognitive dissonance
you're a caricature of what I want in the future
a living, breathing doppelganger
