We are exact opposites of each other

But that's what makes us so harmonious together.

I can create beautiful melodies without you

But I always feel like something is missing.

When together we may create heartbreaking dissonance

But I can't say I can live without it.

I am always surrounding you with my love

But you are so desperate to leave me that you go by different names.

I have so much to offer,

But you always look down on me from your pedestal.

We are so close 

But will never touch each other.

Thus is the burning love the white keys have for the black keys.

Why do you always seem to look straight at me 

when you're actually looking past me?

Why do you always seem talk to me happily

but leave me sending the last message?

Why do you always keep me yearning for more

when you know you don't feel the same?

Tempted by your steady gaze,

Enticed by your unfazed confidence,

Drawn to your meticulousness.

Why do I have to face the harsh truth

that you're not meant for me?

I

                              remember your contagious smile, how you

loved

                              playing the piano but not practicing, and how

you

                              managed to make me begrudgingly love you

always.

Why couldn't I look you in the eye?

Why couldn't I reach out to talk to you a little longer?

Why couldn't I ask when we would meet again?

I couldn't stop smiling when you spoke,

My heart couldn't stop rapidly pounding,

I couldn't move.

But I couldn't ask for more of you,

I couldn't tell you to stay, because

You couldn't have desired me the way I desired you.

Smirking at something sorrowful of someone,

Juvenile joy jabbing from jostled justice.

SMASH! 

Tickled tremendously by troubled tales,

Never noticing nearby needs.

BOOM! 

Death drops in for depraved deeds.

All the colour is sucked out of your world.

Black and white only changing to colour 

When that person's name is on your lips, 

When you get a glance of that person,

When you daydream about that person.

Not a bright colour though, 

A sad one, 

maybe blue.

You are overwhelmed with anguish and regret, 

you feel an indescribable pain in your chest. 

But you yearn for blue.

The moment when your black and white can become blue.

The addictive pain that has a hold on you.

Because without the blue, your world is colourless.

You live inside my brain.

My heart skips when I hear your name.

I've felt you a million times in my mind.

I've fallen for you a billion times.

If I could touch you,

I would caress you,

but only once.

Knowing your shape is enough for me,

who with you will never have a chance.

I breathe your name when you don't even give me a second glance.
