It looked like that from the inside
But outside how was I to know your feelings
I was only dreaming that this I could catch yours
And your feelings towards me would change
By sharing secrets between the two of us
That this would build trust
But it got broken down to two –
Me and you
And somehow, I got lost in the toss of
Trying to define it
Or maybe manipulate it
Or mold it into one this
But my this was different from yours is
And I swore I would respect it –
Give it space
And not name it
as if it was gender neutral –
maybe not call it
and whatever that is be happy to have it
