I meant to say this out loud....
For You....*
You make me want to try
To wake up in the morning
And embrace another's humanity
To go to bed at night feeling blessed
You make me want to be kissed
To feel your breath
Lightly caress my temples
To feel your hand
Fit perfectly in the small of my back
To close my eyes slowly
Like a butterfly closes its wings
And in that moment
Breathe you in as you
Breathe me out
You make me remember love
Inspire my belief in possibility
The possibility of a shared existence
With a person who is like me
Who is for me
Whose spirit is infinitely completed
By me
You make me dream
And smile from my heart
And write, inspiring my nature
You make my heart laugh
And cause my eyes to see in brighter colors
I have known you for mere seconds
For a fragment of time
And yet
Your impact has been so profound as to
Shake me from my very core,
Dislocate the stars in my cosmos
This is not love
But neither is it infatuation
This seed that grows
Every second
Of every minute
Of every hour
Of every day that I spend knowing you
Makes me want to try
To feel,
To know you innately
To believe in possibility
The possibility of whatever tree
This seed will grow to be....
