Like You
Though I like you I'm not like you
We are worlds apart
The things we like
are things not like the likenesses we start
The likes of you are likes of few
We are worlds apart
What we most like
is most unlike the likenesses we chart
Our likes are true and dislikes too
We are worlds apart
All we dislike
is much alike the likenesses of heart
Though I like you I'm not like you
We are worlds apart
Unlike dislike
alike is like the likenesses of art
