I must admire what I cannot see.
Stronger than sinew and bone,
Something skin deep laced throughout the body.
Into ribbons, into knots, holding it all together
I can see frays in the wire but never a clean break
I could never see you break.
The strain of an elegantly genius mind.
Like ice to a furnace I depart from the numb I once knew.
My body shaking from the cold,
The blush in my cheeks is because i'm warming up
Honest
I cant help it
When you talk to me.
