Seeing You

is even better than waking at six to a

birthing sky
partly because you look better in your red tee

than any sunrise
partly because of the afternoon sunshine that lights up
your face
and your every movement that still takes my breath

away






I could never
see anyone in the same light in which you

bathe
except for my dog and she’s a vicious

thing
but you like dogs too so we can love her

together



when you finally see
everything we could be
if only you could just





see me

This is an imitation piece fashioned after Frank O'Hara's "Having a Coke With You" but with my own ideas and story. I wrote this during Creative Writing camp last summer and I hope you like it. :]
