i can't explain it.*
i've been trying for so long to put words
to the way i feel when i think of you but
i can't explain it.
it's not love. it's not.
i've been in love before and none of that has ever felt this amazing.
and here we are again,
the word 'amazing' doesn't even begin to define the way it feels.
i can't explain it.
kissing you is like kissing the sun.
sleeping with you is like sleeping on a cloud.
looking at you is like watching the most beautiful sunset you could possibly imagine.
i can't explain it.
but that's not enough,
there's more. there's always more
because a love like this is never ending
a love like this follows you on throughout your life
i keep looking at my hands and wondering
if maybe sometimes you close your eyes
and think of them
i can't explain it.
i am always thinking about your hands
your nails on my broken flesh,
your fingers in between mine,
i wonder about your life line, your heart line --
how many kids will you have? how many past lives have you lived?
i bet you have a writer's fork.
i can't explain it.
you are a mystery to me
and i've been trying so hard to make sense of this
to make sense of you
*i can't explain it.
