Not You
He is not you.
Not at all.
He doesn't have your eyes,
He doesn't have your laugh,
And he doesn't have your hands.
He isn't you.
Not one bit.
His smile isn't yours;
It doesn't complete me.
His embrace isn't the same as
Yours that would hold me.
He can't be you.
Never.
He tries,
But what's the point?
You can't fix the pain with deceit.
You can't win war without defeat.
He tries,
But what's the use?
You can't heal love with a handshake.
You can't heal love without change.
He isn't you,
He will never be,
He can't be,
He isn't...
You.
