significant other

Significant other
what does that mean?
I think about it as my chambermaid folds my laundry
I look up to ask her, but it would be rude
so I ask her anyways, for I need that tasty answer
she doesn't know and she shrugs

oh the pain of not knowing what thou means
can I prick you from a catacomb?
can I sell your soul for good?
the poppies grow gently as the question still remains
the sun falls and the moon rises
my feet are rounded and not flat
I still can't sleep because I have that question
all to myself
Significant other,
what do you mean?

so, I wake up in a haze
was I dreaming the night before?
keep in touch with reality kid
it might bite you on the floor
for my name is not Aristotle
Jupiter exists, help me answer this question
let time let me live
the baroness knocks at my door
I take her swiftly in

I ask her the question
and she replies to me with great sin

"for dear, it's the one you love the most,
someone like you in mind and soul,
one who cares for you significantly
yet you are different by this condition
you are an other"

I look differently upon the mirror now
I see who I need to be
to find this significant other, she said,
just involves being me
the med student down the hall
the lawyer in his chambers
and the teacher on the arete

the ones who believes in thee
