soul mate

Why does everything have to be tainted?

with the hate of a brother

with the blood of another

I just want something to be mine

Someone to kiss me in the silence

and to fill me with content



I imagine someone like me waiting

for some touch like mine

or to expand in a mind

or to love what they find



But similar dreams run

in opposite worlds and

is there not anyone

who can understand

who i am?



Heres to you, parallel soul mate

maybe like a fairy tale, ill find you

and youll whisper of fate

and it will all come true

until then, darkness, i can only wait



does anyone know how sweet it is to alone?

But only when everyone else is different

Can you hear whats inside my soul?

can you even listen



Heres to you, who loves the silence

and what can fill it

sweet as this bitterness

and what riddles confine

A cry, a plea hidden in rhymes

and what can break it

enter my safe place, if you can unlock it



Does anyone know

what a gift it is to be alone?

But only when no one gets it

Can you hear the silence in my souL?

can you even listen

to the difference



WHy does everything have to be tainted

everyone taken

I am discarded

My two halves parted

in the race for the one



But similar dreams run

in opposite worlds and

do you think i can find the one

who understands?
