if i commanded every atom
with half a thought
and pulled your eyes to mine
                                just to smile.

if i twisted the paths of time
and space
just to pass you walking
                               all i could do is smile.

even if i ruled the universe,
Your slightest glance
smallest smirk
wanton quirk, would bring
lips to hide my tongue
and lungs to miss the air.

yet you'll wonder why
i don’t want the universe
