i am just a pebble on your river bed
if i did not exist, you would have kept flowing
if you had not met me
you would have kept going
and that way, it is an honour
to have such a force of nature
stop on her way to kiss me.

to me
is taking
my pain
and making
it sing.

those blue eyes
reminded me of the skies,
and in that moment,
i thought i could fly.

those blue eyes
reminded me of warm oceans in summer,
where i thought
it was safe to swim.

but you've decided to shut them
and take back all you gave me.
i never knew
i was heading for an incoming plane
and that i was diving into a whirlpool.

and as i gave up trying to pry open
those hateful skin that kept you away from me,
i realised blue eyes were long carved
into the skies and the sea.

You're like the moon.
Some nights you show your full beauty.
Just being present for everyone to appreciate and see.

Some nights you get anxious,
You hide a bit of yourself from the world.
Worried that people are tired of you.

And some nights you don't show yourself at all.
You stay in darkness, weeping.
Feeling better if you were just a secret.

You
when I see you.
time doesn't slow but it blows past me at lightning speed, my heart slows.. pumping the same amount of adoration as always.. everyone fades around me and it's just you that I see..
when I hear you.
I listen closely every time you're around so that way my mind has a perfect print of your voice waves, a perfect memorization of things you say and when you are happy or sad. A perfect enabler to help me identify where you are mentally and emotionally.
when I think of you.
my hectic mind always filled with worry and self consciousness straightens up, one thought of you at a time... I remember the way you look when you smile the way your lips curl upwards at the sides when you look over at me...
when I speak to you.
my hands still get a little sweaty and my heart pumps a little faster, but I'm so content with you... I've memorized your laugh but it's never enough that I don't crave hearing it. every sentence you speak is important when it's directed to me or when it's about me. I listen so closely so I can always remember what that voice sounds like.
when i feel you.
whether my arms are wrapped around you or you're just leaning on me when you're tired or wanting to be close. my breathing slows and my care for you continues to grow... the comfort of being so close to you hearing your heart beat or even just your breathing, it calms the storm within me like nothing else ever has.
when I love you.
you'll know it's with all my heart, it makes me nervous and at the same time it feels like home. I no longer think of home as the house I live in but a place in your arms, a place around you, a place where I look into your eyes and I see that glint of happiness or even the anger or sadness. when I love you, this heart will be at peace and it may be the death of me or the thing that makes my heart pump steady and my mind never think about it stopping for anything. ~m.a.g
