I should have known better than to think you would be the same girl i fell in love with so long ago... Some of the most basic texts for an an intro biology class could have told me that each and every one of the cells that make up the human body die and regenerate...
Most of which do so in less than a year...
So why am i so surprised to find that all that was you died in the years since we last spoke...
Even still you stand and speak with her voice...
You even remember me...
But you are nothing more than a clone of that woman i loved back then...
So here i am a man that firmly believes in the laws and rules that govern the world we live in attacked and brought to his knees by that one little speck of an idealist that lived somewhere in my soul at some point...
All because foolishly i believed that biology was a secondary force when put up against the intangible
things that make this cold and lonely life worth living...
I thought our love could survive...
This time it took for both of us to become entirely different people was too much for out love to bear...
You are not her...
Even if you have her face...even if you have that smile...
Even if you have those eyes that pierce the soul that i didn't even know existed until you showed it to me...
And what's worse is that now you show me that in no way am i the same person i once was either...
So this is basically for Michelle... this by no means is about Michelle... just want to get that clear to people that aren't Michelle and stumble upon this for what ever reason...but i know she wanted me to post something... so i did... and here it is... it's dark... most of my poetry is... heck I'm like that... but i feel like to appreciate the light you have to accept the darkness...
