here we go again

Only you would know what the finger tap meant.

Though separate, our childhood has been so parallel

And now that I’ve met you, how could we not empathize?

Sometimes, we’d reminisce together at home

And if the future called either of us, we’d go together

In my car, and now on the subway.

And although I say you’re just a friend,

You've felt like home, even more than home does now

Ever since i told you about it all when i laid in your lap.

Comfort means familiarity,

But sometimes familiarity means brokenness.

Though you know all my insecurities,

I fear most that I could never reciprocate it all

Including the innocence you had given back to me.

A third chance has been given to me, that I’ve taken instinctively

Not because I see the shadows of what came before,

But because I envy all of you.

regardless of our future

Being separate from each other’s touch

Will never be an option.
