who you are
November 23, 2013
Does she notice the things that I do?
Ask her if she sees the
myriad of stars that
Light your eyes
Or the flowers blooming
in your mind,
fertilized by the pressure to be perfect.
Will she ever know the
depths of your passion
or the way your heart
lights a fire in those surrounding you?
I only want to be the
moon for you;
lulling you to sleep, nightly
drawing the waves onto the shore.
I want to be your smile,
the gentleness in your fingertips
and the sweet words
spilling from your lips.
