How can I love you
when I don't know you?
Your laughter is the harmony in every song,
your smile is the watermark on all my photographs,
but I couldn't tell you how your tears make me feel.

Your eyebrows crinkle when you're angry,
Not that I'd know.
You only show me your best, cleanest parts.
Yet I have given you everything.

I cannot tell you that I love you back
when all I've ever known is your smooth surface.
