Surface Connection

Thin interactions
simulating love
are never really love
never really love

I find you in the surprises
know you in the silences
those uncoded moments

Bina, I'm in trouble
all the signs are there
made a surface connection

Will it ever be real
these feelings between us?
"Like a planet around a star"

the distance is where we are
pulling toward each other
for no reason I can think of
