for you, glow

silent passings
quiet understandings
running
out
of words

loud stares
short calls
minutes
questioned
and moments
left behind

if walls
could talk
they would
tell us their stories
and
they will
with those
that lived them
that kissed them
that bled them
that paid for them

and you

will it
kill
you?

so many decision
i see the tension
i hear
too many of those
wanting
to feel the life
without living it
everything
so
quick
so
foggy
so
industrial
yet so alive
so un-programed
so creative
so organic
and beautiful
and tall
and strong

think
not of it
as your doom
think
not of it
as your destiny
think of it
merely as
your
blank
canvas

and
make
your
art

paint the pictures
dance the routines
act the scenes
sculpt the statues
sing the songs
and bring light
shine to
believe

and if you
show it
a fraction
of the love that
you've
shown
me
then it will
be the finest
of it's wine

and when
its finished
let us enjoy it
or let them have it
so we
may run
away
and watch
blue eyes
for you
glow

of the day we met"

i love you
every time
