Looking at the big dipper above me
The stars look so lovely
Tonight they’re so bright
Reminds me of the way your eyes shine
When you laugh, so easily
All of the time
It’s one of my favorite things
Like the sounds you make when you’re content
Falling asleep
Just the way you giggle when you’re happy
And can make fun of yourself
You bring joy all around you
And give so selflessly like it’s natural
I like when the redhead comes out
Though I hate when you’re unhappy
But the fire is powerful
Like the way you push through every boundary
I love the way you resonate
Like the rainbows in the kitchen catching sunlight
You magnify
Everything good about being alive
Like when you’re goofy high
Or can’t stop talking
I could listen all night
Like we did so often
Trying to slow your own brain
I wait for every word with the patience of hearing music for the first time cuz I know it will be worth every bit of time to experience every syllable from your mind like a glimpse into the most captivating place I will ever find and if I could I would go there all the time like secret gardens to remind me there is still beauty in this life even through struggle and the way you have to unwind to get where you are going I would take the time for the rest of mine cuz though it is unfair in a way that says the best things come at a price for you to have to navigate through so much chaos to be alright I will never.. mind.
I will never not love every surprise from your lips or fingertips and I mean the communication kind and if I ever get to experience them physically again I may unravel completely at the bliss of it because you are not just made from stars you are what they evolve into when born in human form and that may sound like exaggerating like I’ve said something close to it before but that was romanticizing chemicals and this is more but it isn’t about me other than how I can see and can’t see how anybody could ever not that you are simply more, more than I can put into words, in a way that could never be too much except for how it seems these simple organs and veins must strain to contain the energy that you are and so they fight you and fail you just as other humans do when they try to put you in a box to make you smaller because you make them feel inadequate and off kilter and that is never a reflection of you or what you should’ve learned to internalize because you are the spark in the night all on your own and you cannot make a home where it is flammable because it cannot contain you and you will be blamed for the flames for the blind when the fault is in their eyes why do we tell the sun to dim or the moon to not shine when it was created to be light and when it hits something else glistening just right.. it makes rainbows. Like you when you let yourself shine.
