Opposites attract
But fire melts ice,
Water suffocates fire.

You really sooth me

You might be the one,
I've been debating
Do I pull you?
Or do I pull you?

You're beautiful
Science says were all unique,
You're hella unique

I see you and wonder...
Are you really the one?
Are you the one I've been waiting for?
Everything supports that
You don't even know that

God has His way,
Are you about to come my way?
Hella - immensely
elegant
walks like she is being judged
turns around
expecting a crowd

the occasional humble
she does not stumble
societies opinion
fear of demoralisation

she could be herself
but she tries to be
someone else
Centred
Yet no attention
She craves attention

Society gives her a reflection
Yet she gets no acception

She tries to be the everyday
Projects failure
Has no savior
No hope
The struggle like night and day

Still no acception
Becomes too much
Thinks she's doing the norm
Doesn't realise she's stepping on a thorn

Here comes a storm
Critical rhythmatics
All against her
Cause she's tryna be her version of the norm

— The End —
