You are like nobody else Hot breath on a cold night The momentary brightness Just after you’ve closed your eyes. You are the brightest star in the darkest sky The blood that boils under my colorless skin The first and last word of a novel The most brilliant novel Filled with pages and pages of nonsense words And brightly colored and breathtaking photographs And the single page hidden in the middle Telling your entire heartbreaking story In sudden, vivid detail. You are the rush in my ears and my vein And the violent wind through my hair And the violent crashing in my chest. You are like nobody else And so I love you.
