I wish the universe would stop
playing twister with my heart.
Quit making it stretch
where it cannot reach,
allow the one it wants,
to break the walls
to breach the vaults,
and take hold of my soul
Crack the glass shell
in which it is ensconced.
Open the doors
and cross my threshold please.
Would it listen, if I screamed?
I only want to feel happy,
and happiness is the one
I've met in my dreams.
She lives enshrouded by moonlight.
A glow, like an angels holy light,
but twice as bright.
I see her when I close my eyes.
A vision burned onto
the blank canvas
of emptiness I keep within.
My escape from the noise
I spend most of my days avoiding.
To share the sweet air she breathes,
to be there in her stories,
to flow through her poetry,
into places where
we can flow free over mountains
built from every whispered I love you.
Where we can feel the truth
blow through trees.
Grown from seeds of every stuttered sigh,
from every time your eye glances
for just too long at her glittered smile.
That gift. The present
that makes everything worthwhile.
