You aren't strong
not like you want the world to see you
you go beyond
the stereotypical break through / pass through / world view
and you come to rest somewhere different entirely.
You aren't strong
not like you want the world to see you
you go beyond
the usual cut through / push through / subdue
and you come to rest near my heart.
You aren't strong
not like you want the world to see you
you go beyond the typical attend to / be kind to / follow through
and you come to rest too close.
I'm not strong
not like I try to convince the world
I go beyond the happy pearled / swirled / twirled
and come to rest too far from your heart.
We're not strong
not like we want the world to see
we go beyond the beautiful foresee / palm tree / agree
and come to rest near each other.
Never quite touching,
never quite close,
just enough to see you
and inspire some prose.
