Dear You,

Dear You,
I had not a time to tell you, dear you,
What was so urgent in my thoughts before I was gone
But alas my body has gone to live on,
Somewhere that is not beside you
I realize as I write, that I have fallen
For someone so out of reach
That I am sure everyone is looking at me with pity and laughter in their eyes
For you, dear you
Are too kind and too lovely
To remind me of my place in this judgmental community
I understand that to fall for you is to let myself be miserable in love
But to have not fallen would have been utterly impossible
For you, dear you are the loveliest, the most elegant, and the most real of all there is to see
You, darling you are the only one I can see
Because all else is lost when you are in my sight
Every word that has fallen past your lips
Has been another note in the melody that is your conversation
Every laugh, that of the chorus of a choir
And that twinkle in your eye, oh that sparkle
The indescribable shine that, lights up the entirety of your being
Oh that, look every time the music that has held your favor starts to play
The melody acts as hypnosis to you so that you will dance
I had not a time to tell you, dear you, the urgency in my words
My courage fell when I saw you in all of your beauty
The sun falling perfectly to enhance the structure of your jaw, And the curve of your lips to form a smile
The courage to tell you, dear you
That I have fallen into an abyss called love
And the only thing to bring me light in this abyss is the press of your lips against mine
