Where We Cannot Be

By: Maatla Garogwe 🌷 We found each other in a space too perfect, where your smile felt like something I’d known before, and in your presence, everything made sense— like my heart had finally reached its shore. But love does not always bow to longing, there are lines we cannot cross or erase, and though my soul leans gently toward yours, reality keeps us in separate place. So I will love you in quiet acceptance, in the silence of what will never be true— because some hearts are meant to meet and feel, but never belong… no matter how much they want to.
