Maybe we weren’t meant to be

In Poetry we say:

Perhaps you will always be my parallel line

forever one step and an infinity away

I want to be pretty in the way that sweet words roll of my tongue and people taste their beauty with their mind rather than their eyes.

I don't want to be pretty like that, not in the way that I draw all the attention in the room that me.

I want to be pretty in the way wild flowers hidden in the most unlikely places are pretty, I want people to stop and think, wow she changes the way that I see weeds.

I don't want to be pretty like that, not in the way that overshadows the beauty of others.

I want to be pretty like when you re-read a letter from an old friend, so that when you look at me, you're reminded of all that is valuable in you.
