to my sun ray.
you are blue
blue girl
blue eyes
blue heart
a thief
who stole
stole my breath
stole my pride
stole my spirit
broken beyond belief
but completely perfect
so beautiful
you told us of your troubles
bravely and without hesitation
crying
eyes red
we listened
with rapt attention
was that when i knew
that i loved you?
or maybe it was later
when you had to step out
i followed you
and you sobbed
angry at yourself
angry at what you thought
was deficiency
when really
it was just humanity
you told me i’m a good listener
that’s just for you, though, love
even now most of my friends never knew about you
about what you mean to me
will always mean to me
blue girl
with the crystal clear eyes
and sharp mind
we loved each other at the same time
but could never say
just quite how we felt
neither of us knew until after
don’t you wish we would’ve?
oh, we would’ve been something
something amazing.
you
were numinous
to the blue girl
with the blue eyes
and the blue heart-
thank you.
