Letter to my sister
I love you like earthworms love soil
Like sandwiches love foil
Like masseuse love body oils.
I love you like birds love chirping
Like airplanes love flying
and like flies love eating…you know…dirt
I know sometimes I’m a jerk
But believe me when I say I love you like the mountains
love the snow
Like how waterfalls love the mountains
Like how orchids love waterfalls
If only you knew how my love for you is geotropic
'Cause the more I grow, the deeper it grows
It’s strength keeps me rooted
See like a broken clock
my love for you is timeless
Like a broken record its rhythm is eternal.
It is beautiful, like when dawn gives birth to sunrise
and sometimes
I am astounded by the light you shine upon me
If ever someone tells you they love you more,
they are probably lying
Like sandwiches love foil
Like masseuse love body oils.
I love you like birds love chirping
Like airplanes love flying
and like flies love eating…you know…dirt
I know sometimes I’m a jerk
But believe me when I say I love you like the mountains
love the snow
Like how waterfalls love the mountains
Like how orchids love waterfalls
If only you knew how my love for you is geotropic
'Cause the more I grow, the deeper it grows
It’s strength keeps me rooted
See like a broken clock
my love for you is timeless
Like a broken record its rhythm is eternal.
It is beautiful, like when dawn gives birth to sunrise
and sometimes
I am astounded by the light you shine upon me
If ever someone tells you they love you more,
they are probably lying
