Perfect Imperfection

Although I’m embarrassed to say

I never knew

You would have such a spot in my heart

when we met.

And just like us,

                        our meetings,

                                          they got so complex.

Convinced that our worlds were so different

I resolved myself to the thought,

“We would never be.”

Because of my inflexible and stubborn ways

most of what I felt

                        I never expressed.

 And I know you clearly have two sides.

 So here is what I never said

                                                But always felt.
