Unattainable Love

Difference is the key to life
There’s nothing wrong with it
It makes you who you are

But why must you be so unique?
Because you make me smile
Even when no one else can
Because you make my heart
Flutter when I hear your voice
Because you hold the key
That opens up my mind to new things

But why must you be so brave?
Because people then will see
That your life is no different than theirs
Because you realize that when you do
It helps people in many ways
Because that’s just how you work
And how you reveal yourself

But why must you be so loving?
Because you’re a lover
And not a fighter
Because you hate
To let people down
Because you care
When no one else does

But why must you be so open?
Because you know when to open your mouth
When things go the wrong way
Because you open your mind to different things
Even when those things are wrong to the world
Because you feel like you must defend yourself
When things take a turn for the worst

But why must you be so unattainable?
Because you care for someone else
Who needs to open their eyes
Because I know it’ll never happen
Because I know you deserve better
Because I know you deserve love
Even if it’s not with me
