Your Question
This was written after wondering how I would answer the question "How can you so sure about us?" if I was ever asked it by the woman I'm dating.
The night sky cascades down upon us
as I look into your eyes.
I search longing for an answer
to the question in your mind.
The question of certainty
is the one that has come to pass.
I’ll try my best to answer
though as sure as the question is
I’m sure to stumble and fall.
When I look into your eyes
I see beyond tomorrow,
I see days that will come to pass
that the sun has yet to reach.
When we kiss
I have a longing for more,
not for another moment
but an infinite amount of moments.
When your hand takes mine
I feel a love and warmth
that wraps around me
enveloping me in everything you bring into my life.
In my dreams, both sleeping
and awake,
you lift me to places
only you can reach.
With you the world
is a better place
with you I’m a better man.
In short you are how I can be so sure.
