I always put away the pen instead of painting you in
How can I win describing?
Nothing I could write would ever hold a candle to how you make me feel.
My words fail me unlike your love.
You weren’t a shallow promise
Not a lovers dream
You’re real
Behind the mask it’s just you
In loving you I’m made kinder
To the world, myself and the rest.
Cause I see you in your infinite facets
I’ve known for long it takes imperfections
To make a true masterpiece.
To steal a quote from those who came before me
‘Beauty is nothing but the beginning of terror’
And baby I’ve been terrified since the day we kissed.

Quote mentioned is by Rainer Maria Rilke.
