we sing our love—       are we in the same key? the notes seem to fall flat       our hearts are missing chords                                          why can’t I ever match your tempo?                         the harmonies sound dissonant—        as if we’re doing our own solos          we dance, trying not to step                 on each other but somehow                             we are always a little                                                                    offbeat
