You
As  the days pass by in a swirling motion of blurred images,
I sometimes wonder is there anything in this world that will catch my eye,
I begin my day in the early morning hours before the sun ever rises to warm the day,
And they do not end on most days till the sun has already retreated hiding beneath the horizon,
And then one day there was you,
Early before  I could feel the brightness of the sun,
I could not explain the feeling in my body,
You are the brightness to my dark days,
As the sun you are to me,
I feel you light up the day,
But without the harshness,
You warm up the soul, and enter it quickly,
But are not unwelcome,
Your smile does not betray or deciet,
But rather inspires,
Even with all this saddness and hate,
Your smile awakens an old flame, an old smile,
A hope,
A hope that not everything has fallen to abuse or lust,
But rather an innocent love,
No questions no answers,
Not a simultaneous crush or a flame to be tickled,
But an unconditional love,
Just a knowledge that you have already saved me,
Saved me from taking a leap into the abyss,
You are my everything,
You may or may not know it,
Not until you catch my eye,
That will be when I tell you all,
Through a glance of chance,
I will open my soul and pour it into your heart,
You are my soul,
You are to me everything that is right and holy,
And if you allow it I will be your stars,
I will shine brightly for you,
So that you may never be afraid of the dark,
For you are the sun which brightens my world already.
