How can I not love you?
For when your head is high up in the clouds
Free, unchained, holds no bounds
Drifting on endless blue

Towards the crimson afternoon
In a palette of pastel hues and gray
'Cross the canvass of our last summer day
Spilled sunset and water blooms

How can I not love you?
When the autumn breeze wraps itself around
The coffee cup warmed with traces of your hand
Melts to a morning dew

Blotching the sheets of white
Unfinished letters scattered like the sands
In a desert of aimless thoughts, profound
With oasis in sight

How can I not love you?
When your eyes burn like an ocean of stars
That swallow the winter lights asunder
Drowning all in view

All but the crowning trees
That spread their elegant twists in glory
Of imitating your hair, now tell me
How can I not love you Denise?
