If I am the stars
then you are the sky
holding me up
teaching me to fly
if I am a fish,
then you are the sea.
Whenever in embrace,
We are all we can be.
If I am a heart,
then you are my soul.
Holding me together,
keeping me whole.
So if you are you,
and I am me,
Then together as one,
we will always be.

This is written about a guy that I am currently dating. I originally just showed it to my friends, but they convinced me to post, so here it is!

Gil: I would like you to read my novel and get your opinion. 
Ernest Hemingway: I hate it. 
Gil: You haven't even read it yet. 
Ernest Hemingway: If it's bad, I'll hate it. If it's good, then I'll be envious and hate it even more. You don't want the opinion of another writer.

Haha I definitely sensed some Zechy-ness in this poem, even before I read the Author's Note ;). Anywhos, great poem! Usually I don't really like rhyming, but this was good ^_^
