If I were to write
something nice about you
Perhaps I might write
about the way that your laugh
and the way that your smile,
make me feel
so lit up on inside.
Your eyes, they’re like magic,
like a galaxy of stars,
which all meet together,
in the essence of your eyes.

But if I were to write
something nice about you,
is it possible?
Could I do it?
How could I speak of your many secrets?
Of all of those beautiful,
lost ideas
that you hide down inside.

Yes, if I were to write
something nice about you…
I wouldn’t write about your
magical eyes, your laugh,
or your smile.
No.
I would write about your beautiful
mind, and all of those
deep, deep, dark, secrets
that you keep down inside.
