Every single word Sentence, idea That comes from you Has it's own weight, As if it's completely palpable, And frozen in a moment; Something I can hold, Put into a box, shut tight, Suffocated, so It won't blow away, Forgotten, watered-down, I want it to be something, I won't ever lose, Because everything, Fascinates me, And I don't know how, To make it go, Away. 

I'm not very fast. It would not be likely, For me to promise you, That I could run, One thousand miles, For you, If I had to. I'm out of shape, I'm not that great, And I couldn't, Barely run, Ten. But if I can do, Anything, That I really can do, I would do it in a, Heartbeat, I would run, Maybe two. 

The more and more, I say I love you, Write you words, Of care and affection, I feel it means, Less and less, So I'm sorry, That I can't be great, Constantly. But I promise, I won't stop trying. 

I'd like to make a map, Of your body. Every curve Every inch Of your skin. I want to memorize, Every blemish, Every freckle. I want to kiss, Every place, You entirely, Indefinitely. I love you.

As I watch the setting sky, I sit beside you still, Motionless- Eyes glossed over, It's as if you would rather Be anywhere but here, With me. In a different time, With a different self. I watch the people, Going on, and on. As I sit with you, And wait.

Your eyelashes hang, On the lids of the bright And blue like the sky is At 7 in the morning On a hot summer day. While your hair sits, A tangled mess Which I run my fingers through. And your sideways mouth, When it kisses mine Feels something like Soft serve ice-cream On that same summer day. And I wish you were a pool, So I could jump into you, Feel you entirely Wrapped around me, A beautiful cool. 

I used to think, That living your life, For another body, Was not logical. Indulging in a feeling, Letting it take you over completely, And calling it love, Was a very very small thing, To live for. But I feel now, That living for anything, Living for the person (Especially), You hold to dearest, Is far far better- Than staying alive, For no reason, At all.
