comparing myself to her by Emily G Myers'Maybe she's just pieces of me you've never seen.' - Tori Amos
Do her eyes sparkle brighter than mine?
--You always did search for the Heavens--
Are her lips more red and full than mine?
--You never thought apples were red or juicy enough--
Does her hair smell more of lavender than of jasmine?
--You seemed to invariably confuse the two--
Does her age fit yours more perfectly than mine?
--You said 'Maybe wisdom does come with age.'--
Is her love more complete than mine?
--You swore that was impossible--
