Text For Tired Eyes:

Why aren’t there ever words
for the things I want that I hope so desperately
that you would want too?
Will you love how I do,
with the same fervor and passion,
will you miss me when I am away
and swear you think you feel my fingers
on the small of your back when my hand
is no where to actually be found?
Will you sneak stillness into my palms
without me ever knowing you did so,
and will you wander down crooked roads
and stand with awe in your eyes
when the world presents itself
in ways we never knew it could?
Rainfall, when there is rainfall
why can’t we dance inside it? 
You need to know that there is nothing
I cannot do for you, there is nowhere
too far for me to go.  You pulse
when my heart beats, you
yawn for breath, with every one
of my exhalations. 
Will you be the love that stares
and never breaks glance
no matter the noise
or circumstance that surrounds us?
I want the gaze that goes through all things,
that finds what I was living inside what I am
and whispers it aside to make room
for all I’ll be.  Stare, blinkless,
and find my eyes doing the same.
