Love makes us do crazy things
Even giving away rings
Something I’ve considered
Couldn’t stop the flowing river
The river of love
Something I can’t wait to be part of
Love the thing that ties us
Leaving things to discuss
Things like kids
Things people forbids
Discussing life
With my future wife
Growing and learning
All while yearning
Marriage a title that we use to show our love knot
Something we were taught
The one thing we weren’t taught about
Something you dont hereabout
The little connection
That leaves a lasting impression
A string that connects two hearts
That can’t be torn apart
Sending things we dont say
Like i will not stray or hey
Saying I love you with out words through a bond
Something that makes us respond
That string that connects the two
A soulmate string that says i love you
Forever pulling the two closer and closer
Leaving chills all over
A love they share
Nothing can compare
To the words they share through a bond they share

As a copy, I find it difficult
To the chase such expectations
Every action is closely dictated
To mimic the original's intentions

Limiting precision and accuracy
Leaves no freedom of expression
I am only an embodiment
Of some product imitation

Every movement I call my own
Only causes more frustration
Because it strays from what is known
Like a phrase lost in translation

What if I was the original?
No longer seen as a mutation
To be the focus and not forgotten
To be the object of admiration

But I am merely just a shadow
A silhouette born into submission
Lost in darkness, behind the light
Cursed with a muted motivation

I walked away, weak
I looked ahead, bleak
I endured pain, strong
I thought of dying, wrong
I built over, alone
I started smiling, milestone
I laugh and live, selfish
I’m not looking back, you wish
