how about a prologue?

love hides,
love flies.
we're death
we're life.
we're together,
we're terribly apart.

we're just alike,
stuck with our lakes
of desire.

we're so different,
me, an artist.
you, so logical.

you say the words,
i feel the emotions.

i'm stuck like this,
stuck so far from you.

we're so close,
fighting to be closer.

insomnia keeps me awake
most nights.
and i ponder on you.
your eyes,
the sculpture of your face,
and a ghost of your lips.

i say it too much,
i know.

doesn't make it less true.

i love you.

xoxo
