If my heart were cold

Words take no effort

Actions mirror intentions

Not a sliver of doubt

That i'm an ok person

I'll collect gazes as compliments

Cultivate nonchalance

Treat interactions as if they were not 

Results of thousands of past lives intertwined

But man does it bother me

The possibility that somehow that version

Would be the one that'd fit

Into the grand puzzle that is your life

The ideal you would put on a pedestal

For to be honest

I left with words unsaid, questions unasked

Not too many but nevertheless

Didn't match my curiosity

And i don't want you to have doubts

Like the ones i have

And i want you to see through the mere mortal i am

Who worry of taking up space and time you'd rather save

If that makes me uncool, then so be it

If this adds to your burden, load it off somewhere

But man do i wish

That your eyes would see

If i didn't care, i wouldn't even blip

If my heart were cold, it would only care to impress

With every flaws i shared

There engraved sincerity
