Mango Shake

Lately I have been thinking about you and I
And what a mess it all is

You have dragged me from my core
My centre of stability
and left me on an end that has no one

You and I, we are poles apart
You with your cold, unyielding heart stand on the North end
While I am left to hang out in the sun of the South
That mocks me like there has been none like me before

Am I the only fool there has ever been?

And no matter how much circles I run in, we can never be one
Because poles must stand till the end of the world

Unless the earth is a flat circle on a paper
That you could fold
Then I would fold it by the equator
So you and I, we can be together

With half of the world falling off from behind the circle
The other half folded in between
It's the sacrifice that our meeting demands

Is it worth it for you?
Can you afford it?

Yours is the importance of a mango in summers delight
Mine is that of a banana, forever present

You come with all the pomp and show of the world
With a fragrance too strong
And colors too bright

I am nothing but an option
Sometimes

For the first time
Yesterday, I went to drink a mango shake
In it there was strong flavour of banana

It's only recent that I have realized
Mangoes and bananas don't mix well together
