there's a certain excitement, i think, when something is new
every time you see it, it glows with newness
i think this is the same with people too
they're the first thing you think about when you wake up
the last when you go to bed
and they also glow with a newness
but unlike with things i buy
i don't want this person's glow to fade
right now they are shining, so brightly
i grin when i think about them
and i'm never not thinking about them
but i don't want their light to flicker out
i don't want to look at them and see a burnt out dim bulb
i want them to always be the brightest person in the room
i want them to light up the world
because they have already lit up my darkest rooms
