hands down.

I want all the possibilities of you in writing

I want to give you your reflection

I want to travel into the lightness with you

I want everything before you to follow us like a trail

I want never to say goodbye to you, even on the streetcorner or the phone

I want so much, I'm breathless

I want to put my power into a poem to burn in your pocket so I can sew it back together

I want my words to scream through you

I want you to be distant and for me to feel you close

I want endless day when its daylight and nighttime never to end when its night

I want all the seasons in one day

I want water up to our waists, and to be drenched by the rain, up to our ankles with holes in our shoes

I want to think your thoughts because they're mine

I want only what's urgent with you

I want to get in the way of the barriers and for you to be tough when you're supposed to

And I want you to be tender like you are already

I want us to have met for a reason and for that reason to be important

And I want it to be bigger than us

I want to forget....

I want to remember us

I want your smile always, and your grimaces too

I want my scar on your lips

And I want your disappointments in my heart

I want your strength in my soul and I want your soul in my eyes

I want to believe everything you say....

And I already do

And I want you to tell me what's best for me when I don't know

When you're lost, I want to find you

When you're weary, I want to give you steeples, a cathedral of thoughts, a coliseum of dreams

I want to drag you from the darkness and kneel with you, exhausted from the blinding light glaring on us






To the girl who messaged me,

"Holy crap. you truly have a gift. One that can't be coppied and must come from inside. I'm amazed by you and everything you do. You are amazing."



Thanks, but not everything.







browneyes, i've got tunnel vision. you're at the end. always.
