A Little Off

It’s never quite the way you thought it would be
Always a little off

Puzzles with imaginary solutions
And temporary fixes
For temporary complications
And things unseen
But felt by the heart
And thrown to the wayside

Discarded
Up in flames
With the broken dreams
The broken wings
And things unseen
But felt by the heart
Guided by night
Lost in the dark

But you get what you want
Though always a little off
And not quite what you expected
But you want to like it

And even though it can’t be seen
It’s felt by the heart
So you accept it
And the pieces never fit
Quite the way they did before
Always a little off
Not how you thought it would be
And not that you can see
But felt by the heart

Discarded
A little off
Unseen
But felt
Not like you
Just off
A little
