Book One — She Is You
my cold hand
on her warm thigh
silence was our song
this woman
was something rare
the way she created
waterfalls on the tips of my fingers
~she is you
maybe I'm your one
we are one and the same
in search of the same thing
in search of one another
~she is you
put your love
on top of any mountain
and I will climb it
drop your love
into the ocean
and I will find it
this is
my love
for you
~she is you
don't forget about your magic, baby
don't forget about the
many battles
you've survived
the many obstacles you've broken through
don't forget about your ability
to see beyond your obstructed view
right now the only
one who can provide
what you deserve
is you.
~she is you
you are the owner of my heart
~she is you
she's beautiful
me, watching her lips
as she breathes through
I lean in closer
just to whisper
"I love you"
~she is you
haven't you noticed
you're more like the sunrise
not everyone will see value
in your presence
not everyone will wake up
early enough to appreciate
the sight of you
and that's okay
your light
is not for everyone
~she is you
she was a giver
she had the biggest heart
she was affectionate
she was often
taken for granted
she was the one who felt
as if she loved too hard
she was the one
picking up the pieces
of her own heart
in hopes of starting over
now she's
the one
who will wear my ring
~she is you
paint me into your future, my love
let me spend whatever time I have left
with you, in your embrace
our faces touching,
the points of our noses
colliding with ease
your eyes are closed
but mine are open
your eyes are closed
but mine are open
I don't want to shut them
in fear of missing something
that I should see
paint me into your future
until we're old and gray
our skin wrinkled by time
the time I thought I'd lose
before you entered the picture
paint me
paint you
paint us, please
~she is you
I am a solar system
with crashing comets
and star clusters
And in all my pieces
she exists
I can feel her so strongly
it's like I am
not me anymore
Like all my pieces
belong to her
~she is you
I know life isn't always
about bright colors
and fireworks
Sometimes the colors
aren't always clear
and our days
get so hard
they hurt
But settle down with me,
hold my hand,
let me kiss you
All I want is to know you more
Better than anyone
else has before
~she is you
Book Two — She Is You
the most beautiful words
are the words
you fear to say
the words you
have trouble saying
because you can feel them
rather than voice them
So when u ask me
"why do u love me"
I go silent
because the reason
cant fit under specific words
These unsaid words
are felt rather than said
~she is you
my heart belongs to you
I know its not easy
loving someone like me
I have a certain type of tint
to my soul
which makes it more difficult
for others to see inside
I lives most of my life
as a madman,
doing whatever I want
But I also believe
I am obsessed with the details
of the things
that I'm passionate about
like dragons, sky, guitar, world, space
and beyond
and this may explain
why I obsess over you
why I choose you
tomorrow makes 19 years
on earth for me
and today
it will make 19 years
on earth for you
and in all my life
I've never known
something so beautiful and precious
in all my life
I've never seen
such beauty in one person
in a world
which I see corrupted
and broken
but beautiful at the same time
where many
has disappointed me
you are the one person
that I been with
in my life
who has never let me down
I'm grateful for our union
as a couple
and our partnership in life
~she is you
i can't
believe
your cold hands
can bring
so much warmth
to my heart
~she is you
i can't believe
i met someone
like you
even after
what I've been through
~she is you
family can mean
anyone
you're willing to fight for
~you're my family now
anything you need
I'll always be here for you
~she is you
I'm not sure
what love is
cause my
mind has fooled
me before
but
if this
is what I think
it is
then
I'm in love
with you
~she is you
i wish i could
freeze time
and be in this moment
with you
all my life
~she is you
roses are red
violets are blue
and I think I'm
in love with you
~she is you
even if you broke my heart
into tiny little pieces
i'd still never talk shit
about you
~there's none to say
it's you
it's always been you
it's really all about
who's the last one
on your mind
before you go to sleep
~it's always you
i'm watching you sleep
and now I know
what angels look like
when they rest their wings
~she is you
you deserve more
you deserve the whole world
wrapped in tissue
and a bow
for just breathing this air
and being a glorious sight
to see on this earth
i stare into space
when I'm with you
you ask me
what I'm thinking
I'll smile and say nothing
let me let you in
on a little secret
I'm thinking of you
I'm in love with you
and my anxiety
is making it hard
for me to admit
I'm sorry
you probably think
something is wrong
but my mouth
isn't allowing
those three words
out of my mouth
it's true
i really do love you
~it's never too much
I love you
~she is you
relationships are like
building a house together
there are little fights
big fights
agreements
happiness
and when the house
is finished
that's like marriage
after it's done
you both will make
minor renovations
or large ones
and you'll live
in that house
hopefully
for the rest of your lives
when you smile
my heart
just fills up
with joy
love is when
you run out of things to do
yet you never
grow bored of
one another
~I hope we never
~she is you
Love me to the bone
beneath the nerves
beyond my mistakes
beneath my veins
Love me entirely
I'm not perfect
I have many flaws
and you put up with me
regardless
in appreciation for all
that you do
and all that you represent
in my life
I give you my truth
and loyalty
I give you my effort
and my time
I love everything about you
the way you cry
and laugh
and smile
when you're genuinely happy
the way you show concern
and care for those
who are close to your heart
and your strength
there is nothing more beautiful
than a human
who continues to fight
despite the chaos
and madness
that surrounds you
in many ways than one
I admire you, my baby
~she is you
One day it wont hurt
as much as it does now
sometime in near future
day to day
it'll get easier
the nights won't feel so lonely
the morning won't be so damn difficult
your heart may ache now
but there's power in pain
and you're just getting stronger
I love you
and what that means
is that I promise
to be better
than what you had
I promise to give you something
that is completely different
than what you've known
I trust my ups and downs
in the palms of her hands
and I'm overjoyed
to experience a world
where we've found each other
~she is you
it's late
the moon sits alone
in darkness
like you
like us
we meet here
to fill each other's void
through different places
the feeling is mutual
staring into
the our videocall
the screen of my laptop
displays you
like moving art
emotion in motion
as you curl
then arch
I'm in awe
of the artistry
miles away
but right in front of me
can't touch
but we feel each other
my eyes
like heavy palms
resting on your waist
as I watch you
you watch me...
wish you were here
Give me a love
that isn't shaken
by an argument
or disagreement
give me a love
that doesn't die
because of time
~she is you
woke up
and the first thing
I did
was check my phone
for a message
"goodmorning baby"
baby, remain still
and be patient
you'll never have to chase
someone who wants to stay
you'll never have to compete
for the time
of someone
who thinks you're important
if they want you
they'll make an effort
if the love...
I love you
I'll give you effort
show you
give you
everything
messy and imperfect but beautiful
~she is you
I know life is short
and our moment here
is limited
there's not enough time
to find all the things
you want
but I do hope
that you reach
all the things
your heart deserves
Nervousness subdued
while holding you
anxiety dissipates
as you smile
my peace now lives
in our moments together
as your existence
continues to build bridges
towards joy
and even though
I'm holding you
you're actually carrying me
~she is you
Book Three — She Is You
Beneath the azure sky, where ocean meets the shore,
I found a love so pure, I'll forevermore implore.
Her eyes, like stars that shine, a universe untold,
Her heart, a treasure trove, more precious than gold.
Her laughter, music to my ears, a sweet melody,
Her touch, a gentle breeze, setting my soul free.
With every passing day, my love for her grows deep,
A bond unbreakable, a love I'll always keep.
She is my sunshine, my guiding star, my everything,
With her by my side, I'll face whatever life may bring.
So let's cherish this love, forevermore it'll stay,
For she is my love, my life, my everything, my way.
~She is you.
The faceless girl of my dreams,
Has a face now
~She is you
I have named her my queen.
There might be taller ones than her
There might be purer ones than her
There might be lovelier than her.
But She is my queen.
That is for sure
When she go through the streets
no one recognizes her.
No one sees her crystal crown, no one looks
at the carpet of red gold
that she tread followed by her steps
the nonexistent carpet.
And when she appear
all the rivers sound
in my body, bells
shake the sky,
and a hymn fills the world.
Now its only me and her
In our own world we build
~she is her
~she is you
When I cannot look at her face
I look at her lips.
lips of soft curves,
her delicate little lips.
I know that they speak for her,
and that her tender words
are born from them.
her smile and her whispers,
the deep crimson
of her mouth,
the way she part them to laugh,
her sweet, gentle voice
that has just kissed the air,
her wide, rosy lips,
her delicate murmurs,
my little universe.
But I love her lips
only because they whispered
to the skies and to the stars,
until they found me.
~she is you
the necessity to protect you overcame me
i love her too much
to remain quiet as you weep
watch me rise to kiss the poison out of her
i will resist the temptation
of my tired feet
and keep marching
with tomorrow in one hand
and a fist in the other
i will carry you to freedom
~she is you
Alone in bed
her image clearly comes
I can see her long hair,
feel it smooth
to the touch of my palms.
Counting down days
When its real
~she is you
You left impressions unforgettable
and when I view our moon
your image surfaces
and that love seems forever.
~she is you
The white star at twilight is fair, and the sky
clears at the day's end,
but she is more fair to me, more dear to me, she is
my heart's friend, its peace
~she is you
I want to be with someone
who dreams of doing everything in life,
and nothing
on a rainy Sunday afternoon.
~she is you
I promise
to live a life with her
so rich of love
that at the end
I will not be
so shy of death.
~she is you
Does the sun promise to shine?
No, but it will—
even behind the darkest clouds,
and no promise
will make it shine longer or brighter
for that is its fate,
to burn until it can burn no more.
To love her is not my promise
but my fate since the beginning—
to burn for you
until I can burn no more.
~she is you
I have never felt like I'm
Wasting time with her.
We could sit in silence for hours
And it would still feel soo full
And good and necessary
Not even a sweat drop wasted
I'm so thankful for her
~she is you
I met her
And then suddenly
Everything became better.
Lows never left alone,
Highs that soar higher than I'd ever known.
The flowers smell sweeter,
The breeze feels cooler,
And the moon glows brighter,
Like it's sharing in this quiet joy.
Suddenly, sunsets burst with meaning,
And color the world in ways I never understood.
Coming from a guy who never really knew
Why people stargaze or chase sunsets—
But now I know why.
It's because when you find the one,
Everything in life feels like it's glowing,
Even the stars and sunsets shine just for you two.
~she is you
I like being alone
But that is why i know she is different
Because for the first time ever
She got me feenin for her company
~she is you
The most beautiful part is
I wasn't even looking
When i found her
Again
~she is you
I will love her
As long as the sun burns
In the sky
As long as the moon
Sins its light
Into the the dark night,
Until the raging
Blue ocean becomes
Calm and run dry.
I will love her
till the end of time
And thereafter
~she is you
She is beautiful,
Not just in the way of body or face,
But specially in the way the moon is beautiful
In its darkest hour.
~she is you
And as I sat and looked at her
and the white beach she sat upon
I thought, what amazing luck I have
that the world had created
such beautiful things
and given me the eyes to see them.
~she is you
She collapsed in tonto me just once
Slight mistake on her side maybe
But i promise
She'll never have to fall again
~she is you
Her fingers entwined
Slowly with mine
And suddenly
Life made sense
~she is you
The words never meant much
that's not how I loved,
it was when she stroked my hair
And kissed my forehead
when she thought I was asleep
that I knew she really did.
~she is you
We were strange in love
her and I
too wild to last,
too rare to die.
~she is you
She chased
Away my demons
With the stars in her eyes
~she is you
She is the reason why
My world finally make sense
~she is you
I see her in every corner
Of every place we have never been
My eyes are a vessel
her soul lives in
Her face is like braille
her mind is my skin
~She is you
Im filling these blank pages for her
Like the way
She filled the emptiness i had
She was the when darkness was above me
She was the as my star and as my moon
She cleaned up my wounds and scars
~she is you
her voice could calm the ocean to sleep
~she is you
Art has always found a way
to speak to my heart
and she have been my favourite piece.
~she is you
Our souls had conversation
That words could never describe
~she is you
In the garden of my heart, a rose blooms bright,
Her petals soft and sweet, bathed in morning light.
A fragrance fills the air, love's gentle scent,
A bond forever cherished, a gift heaven-sent.
~She is you.
Her eyes, windows to her soul, reveal kindness rare,
A smile that warms my heart, dispelling every care.
In her embrace, I find comfort from the storm,
A love that guides me gently, keeping my spirit warm.
~She is you.
Like summer rain, her love flows, setting my spirit free,
Her laughter fills the air, a joyful symphony.
With her, I see my future, a life full of delight,
Hand in hand, we walk our path, our hearts forever bright.
~She is you.
In the tapestry of life, she is the golden thread,
Weaving through my heart, a love that will never fade.
Her presence, a constant comfort, a source of endless grace,
Her beauty, a masterpiece, etched upon my face.
With every shared moment, our bond grows ever strong,
A love that transcends time, a melody, a song.
So let us cherish this gift, this treasure we have found,
For she is my heart's desire, my love, my solid ground.
~She is you.
In the quiet of the night, when stars begin to gleam,
I think of her, my love, my sweet and cherished dream.
Her image fills my mind, a vision of pure delight,
Her love, a guiding star, shining ever so bright.
With every passing day, my heart grows ever fonder,
For she is my soulmate, my confidante, my wonder.
So let us hold on tight, to this love that we possess,
For she is my everything, my happiness, my endless bliss.
~She is you.
The flowers envied her
and so did the sun
so rare, so beautiful
a grand representation
of what a woman should always be
she means everything to me
she is you
~she is you
She has passion
a reckless devotion
a loyalty that's unbreakable
and a truth that's unapologetic
she is love in the deepest form
so beautiful, extremely rare
she is everything she needs to be
in search of all that she deserves
she is you
~she is you
The stars blink
as they watched her carefully
jealous of the way she shines.
~she is you
She is the love at first sight to the
blind man in the dark cave.
~she is you
Book Four — She Is You
Here we go again, I hope u love it
Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmwah
~she is you
Her Presence quiets my busy mind and calms my tired heart.
~she is you
I wonder
How is it possible
That a guy with my faults
My habits,
my mistakes and sins
can still be loved by an angel like her
I love her so much
~she is you
I understand that she may not believe me when I say that
"you'll be okay", and she might think no one understand your
pain or cannot empathize with you. But I want her to know that
these thoughts are not true. Instead, I want to tell her this: she
will get through today, one step at a time simply taking breaths.
Putting one foot in front of the other, and making even the
slightest progress, she will make it to the bedtime tonight and
there I will be waiting for her. waiting to listen about her day
and her awesome accomplishment and I hope I can make her
journey of the day become easier and make her mornings less
heavy and her heart lighter. Because I believe that that is my
purpose in her life and my responsibility for her. But I don't do
it just because of it being something I am supposed to do. I do
it because I want to. If I could I'll cover her heart with blanket and
hide it so nothing can hurt her because I love her more than I
can show.
~she is you
I don't know
what tomorrow holds,
but I promise
to live every tomorrow
inspired
to see our love story
unfold to
one another
~she is you
I will
spend my whole life
trying to give her
the love
she should
have always
received
she deserves it all
~she is you
To be honest
I always considers myself to be the luckiest person alive
having her by my side
moving through life with her has been the greatest
gift ever given to me
and I don't know what I ever did to deserve
someone as incredible as her
~she is you
When I look at photos of her
or read her texts
I wonder what I did
to deserve her
It's hard to comprehend
that I found her
when I wasn't
even looking
and that she stayed
when I wasn't
even expecting it.
~she is you
I could search the whole world
and never find another
like her
she is irreplaceable and incomparable
~she is you
I have late night conversation with my heart and brain.
about her
I don't know if she will understand what I mean
but I want her to know
it's like the moon telling me about the sun
and I tell him about her
~she is you
For her
I wouldn't mind being the bird outside her window
or her pet bird as long as my songs made her happy
I wouldn't mind being the moon
if my light would bring her peace
or the rain lulling her to sleep
if I could carry her into magical dream
~she is you
She is my first
and I don't mean my first kiss
or my first relationship
or my first I love you
she is the first person
who makes me feel like
my thoughts actually matter
and the first one to show me
what I love you actually mean
~she is you
I can't wait to live my life with her
I can't wait to eat takeout with her 2am after our thing
cosy on the bed. I can't wait to stare out the window
at the rain with her while drinking coffee
I can't wait to experience everything with her.
even the small things seem like an
adventure when she is by my side.
~she is you
They say everything
is a reflection of light
and if that's the case
then she is the reflection
that has no shadows
a combination of the
prettiest lights that exist
or even maybe she is a reflection
from a light so beautiful
that it only shines on her
~she is you
As long as I am alive
she will always have
someone who is proud
of her in everything.
I know this might be hard to believe
and I am sorry I make her feel that way
there are things I don't like
I just don't want to risk us
or I don't want her to go away
I want her to be with me
always. I try hard to show her
how much I want her everyday
how much I need her everyday
now I can't survive without her
she is my greatest accomplishment
and the only precious thing in my life
my only trophy that is specially mine.
I can't let her go
~she is you
When I met her
It wasn't her eyes that made me fall in love with her
not her smile
not her body
not her beautiful face
it was her heart
A heart that I knew I'd never see again
that's what made her so beautiful to me
~she is you
The way she dresses
every day is the
least of her outfit
no one
can wear a smile
like hers
~she is you
Even if I had a chance to do everything in my life
all over again and to change it
there is nothing I would change
whatever happened in my life
even the lows and the pain
led me to her.
~she is you
No matter the lifetimes
it'll always be her
~she is you
She was
as gentle as a rose,
as delicate as a daisy
as warm as a sunflower
and more beautiful
than any flower
~she is you
she is a special woman
a diamond surrounded by pearls
a diamond out of this galaxy
~she is you
I thank God for allowing
me and her to live in the same lifetime
, bringing me to this world right after you
and bringing us together
it is more than a fictional story even if it sounds like one
it's a real love story
with endless chapters.
~she is you
It's beautiful the way she showed up in this world,
unguarded and willing to try again, despite all the ways
it has tried to defeat her. But she remained strong despite
the inner battles she fights despite the struggles
she has experienced for so long. I don't know how she thinks
she is weak
all I see is the opposite, she is strong, brave,
loving, kind words can't show how beautiful she is
and unbelievably she is mine, and I will protect her no matter
what
~she is you
She doesn't need a dress
to be a princess
she doesn't need a crown
to be queen
All she needed was love,
and with that beautiful smile and eyes
and herself
she can be anything
and she is my beautiful lady
~she is you
From
the moment
I saw her
I knew
this one
was worth the
broken heart.
~she is you
She is incandescently beautiful
and beauty is the least of her.
~she is you
the night time
is so silent
I feel
so calm
even when
we have big ego
and not talking
but
I'm here
just
writing
poems
about her
~she is you
it's really all about
who's the last one
on your mind
before
you go to sleep.
~it's always her
~she is you
I can't
believe
her hands
can bring
so much warmth
to me
heart.
~she is you
I can't believe
I met someone
like her
even after
what I've been through.
I'm hoping she feels
the same way
~she is you
I don't know
what love is
cause my
mind has fooled
me before,
but
if this
is what I think
it is
then,
I'm in love
with her
~she is you
they all ask me
where do you see yourself in ten years?
I honestly
don't know
because
a year ago
I wouldn't
see
myself here
happy in love
with ______
~she is you
she jumped off the plank
and dived in with the sharks
little did they know
a small weak girl like her
had a heart
and the sharks in the
water were nothing compared
to the ones swimming in
the depths of her
thoughts
spoiler- she lived
~she is you
I can't
believe
your cold hands
can bring
so much warmth
to me
heart.
~she is you
I can't believe
I met someone
like her
even after
what I've been through.
I'm hoping she feels
the same way
~she is you
love
is
more
than
just
a
four
letter
word.
love
Luv. [noun]
the little library session before we went to lay on the rocks

Book Five — She Is You

so sorry its short.
I love you and
I hope you enjoy this one too.
U better do next one I give might

Ummmwah
~she is you
my cold hand
on her warm thigh
silence was our song
this woman
was something rare
the way she created
waterfalls on the tips of my fingers
~she is you
maybe I'm your one
we are one and the same
in search of the same thing
in search of one another
~she is you
put your love
on top of any mountain
and I will climb it
drop your love
into the ocean
and I will find it
this is
my love
for you
~she is you
don't forget about your magic, baby
don't forget about the
many battles
you've survived
the many obstacles you've broken through
don't forget about your ability
to see beyond your obstructed view
right now the only
one who can provide
what you deserve
is you.
~she is you
You are the owner of my heart.
~she is you
she's beautiful
me, watching her lips
as she breathes through
I lean in closer
just to whisper
"I love you"
~she is you
haven't you noticed
you're more like the sunrise
not everyone will see value
in your presence
not everyone will wake up
early enough to appreciate
the sight of you
and that's okay
your light
is not for everyone
~she is you
she was a giver
she had the biggest heart
she was affectionate
she was often
taken for granted
she was the one who felt
as if she loved too hard
she was the one
picking up the pieces
of her own heart
in hopes of starting over
now she's
the one
who will wear my ring
~she is you
paint me into your future, my love
let me spend whatever time I have left
with you, in your embrace
our faces touching,
the points of our noses
colliding with ease
your eyes are closed
but mine are open
your eyes are closed
but mine are open
I don't want to shut them
in fear of missing something
that I should see
paint me into your future
until we're old and gray
our skin wrinkled by time
the time I thought I'd lose
before you entered the picture
paint me
paint you
paint us, please
~she is you
I am a solar system
with crashing comets
and star clusters
And in all my pieces
she exists
I can feel her so strongly
it's like I am
not me anymore
Like all my pieces
belong to her
~she is you
I know life isn't always
about bright colors
and fireworks
Sometimes the colors
aren't always clear
and our days
get so hard
they hurt
But settle down with me,
hold my hand,
let me kiss you
All I want is to know you more
Better than anyone
else has before
~she is you
I spend half the morning
thinking about your phonecall
and when we were up
all night talking
How I felt the effect
of your words
on my heart
I lie in bed
and I think of you
I know you come with baggage
but so do I
I know you're scared
because of how others
treated you
But as the sun rises and sets
I'm falling in love
with all the things you do
~she is you
Book Six — She Is You
my cold hand
on her warm thigh
silence was our song
this woman
was something rare
the way she created
waterfalls on the tips of my fingers
~she is you
maybe I'm your one
we are one and the same
in search of the same thing
in search of one another
~she is you
put your love
on top of any mountain
and I will climb it
drop your love
into the ocean
and I will find it
this is
my love
for you
~she is you
don't forget about your magic, baby
don't forget about the
many battles
you've survived
the many obstacles you've broken through
don't forget about your ability
to see beyond your obstructed view
right now the only
one who can provide
what you deserve
is you.
~she is you
you are the owner of my heart
~she is you
she's beautiful
me, watching her lips
as she breathes through
I lean in closer
just to whisper
"I love you"
~she is you
haven't you noticed
you're more like the sunrise
not everyone will see value
in your presence
not everyone will wake up
early enough to appreciate
the sight of you
and that's okay
your light
is not for everyone
~she is you
she was a giver
she had the biggest heart
she was affectionate
she was often
taken for granted
she was the one who felt
as if she loved too hard
she was the one
picking up the pieces
of her own heart
in hopes of starting over
now she's
the one
who will wear my ring
~she is you
paint me into your future, my love
let me spend whatever time I have left
with you, in your embrace
our faces touching,
the points of our noses
colliding with ease
your eyes are closed
but mine are open
your eyes are closed
but mine are open
I don't want to shut them
in fear of missing something
that I should see
paint me into your future
until we're old and gray
our skin wrinkled by time
the time I thought I'd lose
before you entered the picture
paint me
paint you
paint us, please
~she is you
I am a solar system

and star clusters
And in all my pieces

I can feel her so strongly

Better than anyone

~she is you
she is the reason
i finally learn
the difference
between
being held
and
being home
the way
her shoulder
fits
against
my ribs
is
alchemy
i never
understood
~she is you
we were strangers
three months ago
she was a rumor
i told my mirror
about
the way she would answer
back in my voice
she was a rumor
i lived inside
the way
her eyes
would flicker
on the screen
of my phone
when i pretended
to look away
~she is you
i don't write poems
i just
leave little
breadcrumbs
of myself
around her
so she can
follow them
back to
where she
left
her heart
on my nightstand
in the shape
of a question mark
~she is you
her handwriting
on a napkin
last tuesday
i still
carry it
like
a prayer
i almost
said
i love you
but she
beat me
to the silence
and
filled it
with
her name
~she is you
sometimes
i wake up
and forget
which parts
of the day
were real
and which parts
were dreams
built from
the way
she hums
while cooking
the way
the steam
rises
from her tea
in the morning
straight
toward
my heart
~she is you
i have late night conversations
with my ribs
they keep
singing
the song
she wrote
in the language
she learned
just for me
the language
between
silence
and
sighing
~she is you
her voice
could calm
the ocean
to sleep
art has always found a way
to speak to my heart
and she have been my favourite piece
~she is you
she asked me
why
my eyes
go soft
when she
walks into
a room
i almost
said
because you
do
but then
i saw her
smile at
the barista
and the whole
coffee shop
brightened
up
~she is you
if i build
an observatory
just to show you
that all the stars
in the universe
will never shine
as brightly
as her
then you'd see
why i keep
counting
the minutes
between
us
the way
some people
count
breath s
~she is you
