In a parallel universe, You lay in my bed, with your arms around me You whisper “you smell like home” And I hold you a little tighter Kiss you a little longer And you kiss me back In a parallel universe, You love me too. I have always found it hard to deal with my emotions, the extremes, the black and white So when I fell head over heels in love with you from the first night we met, I thought I had lost my mind I kiss you with passion, in my lips I hold our future, our dreams My arms stretch out to the sky like an ancient tree, I hold our memories in every branch, I hold our laughs in every leaf I look at you and see the face I want to look at every night and every morning till the world turns red and the earth explodes and we’re made into a stardust In a parallel universe, You think I’m special You tell me I hold the world in my eyes, I taste like every daydream you’ve had and my warmth feels like the winter of your life is finally over In a parallel universe, You want me too. In this universe, I lay alone in my bed, with the cold you left when you walked out One day, you whispered “You smell like my childhood” I didn’t know how to take that. I kissed you and you didn’t kiss me back, I held you and you pushed me away I love you, and you precisely said you never will. You think I’m insane, invalidate my feelings Say that what I think is a special connection between us, is ordinary to you. You kiss me and your lips are cold You hold me like you want me to let go You hurt me repeatedly, like open fire gunshots and laugh when you do it Why did I fall for a man like you? A man that came from hell, A man with the devil in him I need to know now, what to do with all these feelings Because I can’t give them to you, I can’t punish myself anymore.
