Degree
We're so much alike,
you're quite like me,
to a degree.
I move my head
love you from a different angle.
Our fingers lace,
our bodies tangle.
I close my eyes again,
love you in a different light.
You're irresistible still
though a bit out of sight.
I adjust my simple mind,
love you in a different way.
Learning to change
to compromise, everyday.
And if I look just far enough
the details amaze,
I can't ignore the signs
two hearts ablaze.
We're so much alike,
You're quite like me,
to a degree.
