Parallels
We could’ve been perfect,
But we weren’t at all –
You lived to party,
While I stayed at home.
You’re Nickelodeon,
And I am Fox Kids.
You talked too much,
When I wanted peace.
You were forgetful
And driving me mad,
Yet charming and funny –
You weren’t that bad.
We’re complete opposites
But at a faraway point,
On the line at infinity
Parallels join.
