Feelings

You and I are

different

our feelings are

measured by a scale

of imaginary numbers

the determining factors

of how deep

or how shallow

our feelings are

while you weep

about something deep

I drown

in a vast ocean of

thoughts and emotions

I can’t unsee

our feelings are distinct

on a scale of

one to ten you feel

whereas I

f e e l

even in my sleep
