I hid my heart beneath the duvet of my words/never be exposed to the light of your walls
 
My heart's playlists, only to be listened to by me/never to flow out of your lips
 
Your unimaginable wittiness couldn't grasp the simplicity of my language /I wondered why
 
 
You were blind/your blurry eyes couldn't see farther
 
My whole desire was to capture your mind/You were meant to be closer/but you remained an arms length 

You probably are not meant to know what it feels like to exist in the world of /the one you ache for,
probably not
