“I laugh, I love, I hope, I try, I hurt, I need, I fear, I cry. And I know you do the same things too, So we're really not that different, me and you.”


Like butterfly wings your eyelashes
fluttered
as gravity pulled me down to
kiss you,

your hands felt like cotton,
so I held them tighter,
afraid you would slip away in between
my fingers

I smiled
until my eyes hid behind
my cheeks,
not like frightened children,
but
like two stars in the shadow of
the most beautiful half-moon they had ever
encountered

Thoughts of
whose mad artist's draft you were,
were clouds that never crossed
my fields of grass
nor mountains

but I was always thankful
he never perfected you
because perfection never meant beauty

in the end of light,
you remain the only one
who has heard me whisper
"as do I"

Back to being cheesy. Yet, I love him.
