MUTUALITY

MUTUALITY

Do I have this sort of emotional block
Meaning love remains a distant dream
If I can’t love you, I can’t love myself
And yet despite it all, you still love me

Knowing you is almost one step too far
But knowledge can’t be underestimated
If I don’t know you, I don’t know myself
And yet despite it all, you still know me

Reaching you is still my permanent goal
Not just physically, but mind to a mind
If I can’t reach you, I can’t reach myself
And yet despite it all, you still reach me
