Clever as the devil and twice as pretty. -Holly Black


I saw him walk on the left side of the street
I walked on the right, I saw him wave
We were same but somehow different
All the same the street kept me on mine
And him on his side, we walked away

Later, we saw each other it was magical
Like the fish finding water and stopped drowning
This time he smiled, but it dropped quickly
I smiled from my side of the road to myself

Then he was gone for good because
We are too different everyone says
I disagree, but because I said nothing
I am stuck walking alone on the
MIDDLE
Of the road
And with that I have lost a once in a life time chance

This shows how even though we are different. We ARE still human. And boundaries should not separate us because we share only basic similarities.
