The only thing in common
is that we’re not the same.
Yet the only difference is
that I like it that way
You may say I’m patient,
but all I’m waiting for is you
to realize that the sum
is greater than the whole.
Maybe I should have held back
and not opened up quite so soon.
But please don’t judge me on
just what you read that afternoon.
Please don’t put me in a pigeonhole;
different doesn’t mean incompatible.
