LAVENDER

Canvases Innumerable

I haven't written for you in a while...

and I'm trying so hard to find words

that capture your smile,

words to the moments we've been living,

words for the love that we've been giving,

and I don't know why...

but it's harder now.

I love you so much,

I love you furiously

I love you richly in depth

and expanse,

but to adequately state

our adventure of late

leaves my soul in a trance.

I love the art of words,

and you're worth ten thousands

of ten thousands,

as paint upon canvases innumerable,

yet I feel as though

there are words that don't exist

that can grasp all there is to you.

Perhaps my pen is evolving,

changing for the better,

maturing in new ways,

that through our many days

I'll find the words to piece together;

an infinity of ways to make you smile,

all the different ways to write,

to tell you that I love you.
