organic keys
you have the key to my heart
you opened it without any second thought,
but you lied
you told me I had the key to yours,
and so I believed you
because why would you lie?
I didn’t realize you did lie
until I tried unlocking it,
that’s when I saw how different our keys really were
yours had perfect, straight lines
while mine was more of an organic shape,
and impossible to fit into anyone else’s
