I am right and you
are wrong, wrong, you are right
and I am wrong. We are
perfection, we coincide.
I cry to you and you
cry to me too, you are
my candle on a dark night.

The scars and ridges
soft as satin, what is real?
Real is hard, hard to come by.
We are perfection, we coincide.
Ice burns the unknowing buds of taste,
you are the raft that keeps me afloat.

We are what happens
when you love yourself enough
to care more about the other
then yourself. We are perfection,
we coincide. Our differences are
our similarities, we see through
each other’s eyes.

We are perfection, we coincide.

This piece is something I wrote during a difficult time in my relationship, I hope it speaks to people.
