Lyssa's Poem Book

You're my magic

I never meant to find someone like you

I wasn't even trying to

But I went and you appeared

As if I'd called you all along

I'm a little late 

But this time not TOO far gone.

You looked me in the eye and I wondered "is this home?"

It's only been a bit but I still see you in your throne

You stood out to me

Like a white squirrel on a brown tree

I can't explain why, but are you here to save me?

I didn't know I needed more, I thought what I'd had was plenty

But here I am missing you as if I'd known you so much longer

I think that what we'll do is maybe make each other stronger?

What I felt was a connection

It was warm like a convection

No one else could see

How you smiled right at me

Did I dream it or were you glad?

Glad that I was there, watching YOU

Silently screaming your name. 

Not out loud

But all the same.

I hope your confidence rubs off 

On me, maybe that's the point

You inspire my poetry

I'm crazy, don't you see?

Maybe that's what draws me

Because you're insane, a lot like me

Though we have so many differences,

You even make me fear

But it all comes back to the way it was 

When I felt your gaze on mine

Now I just know I'll be fine.
