I cannot
Live
Without looking
At you
Glancing at your
Glowing face
Smiling when you’re
Not looking.

I cannot live
Without wanting to
Drown myself
In a sea of blue
Because your eyes
Show the same
Vivacity.

I cannot live
Without admiring
Your smile
That carries itself
Across your face
With a paragon
Of harmony.

I cannot live
Knowing that
I’m better left
In solitude
Without the
Tender embrace
Of your
Welcoming arms.

I cannot live
Without knowing
That you
Love me back
Yet my heart
Knows
It’s all a dream
Made by my
Mind
And torn to
Shreds
By reality.
