Apart

Who put this decimal between our names -
so close and yet you're high above me.
Destiny and all its vicious games -
you despise me because you love me!

Life is nothing but a dismal plan
unfolding like it's being undone by fire.
Although I'm doing whatever I can
I know now that I cannot climb higher.

Wisdom is the dot that does us apart -
you reject me because you need me.
I am reduced to a clot in your heart
you want me gone because you bleed me.

Distracted the clouds, build a skyline -
we never meet; you are never 'mine'.
