You're still human

The chip on my shoulder drew you in

a charity case that you think you can mend

but honey now is not the time for your amends

I’m not like those who run to see gold

And immediately become yours

You made your own pedestal

Don’t ask me to make it impeccable

Yet somehow

I do.

because somehow

you made me think you’re unforgettable

It seems to me

that I keep falling into the trap

of men who say they can show me the stars

and everything in between

but when I call them out on their bluff

i become insignificant stardust

still shining on despite a catastrophic tidal wave
