if only you knew the millions of ways your smile single-handedly begs me not to cry you are impossibly ethereal art that can't be touched that can't be real because if it is . . . well, it would mean that smile has to take responsibility for every exploding star every particle that frantically rearranges itself to keep dying planets from falling out of orbit when they are dancing gracefully on the narrow thread that is either extinction or life itself if only you knew how your eyes demand of the world to gain color and lose it's darkness simultaneously again and again they plead for me to stay they look at me green and kind and loving they tell me "existing is worth it." what's insane is you have no idea that you do this to me that you paint the moons that orbit my brain that you bring life to this seemingly grey universe in my head made of static you are such a precious thing this poem can't capture the millions of ways your smile single-handedly begs me not to cry max
