My thoughts when I am with you are impossible to see,
I am unable to decipher thoughts residing in me,
the tension in my mind, tight like a wire,
as  rages on inside me, bright as a wildfire.

What makes you so special is not just your image,
(although that surely helps invoke some thought)
but the mind behind the eyes which light up so bright,
as if within the brain there is no need for privilege,
nothing needed and nothing bought,
with a gentle soul that was purely white.

You free me from the binds within my soul,
as I recognize the potential of what is to come,
without you, within me there is merely coal,
unable to light the fire, as I would merely be numb.
