Fire time, my heart speaks

Your gaze, your eyes that see into me

A stylized way of me looking busy

My front is nothing to you

Your beauty unveils itself when you walk towards my direction

I can only be in awe of how rambunctious I get

And how I write seamlessly with you as my inspiration

I don't have any impediments in this steady composition

Do you know you're running ultra marathons in my mind?

I'm surprised you're not exhausted

Impressed as well from how you glow unabated

Intense as your aura I can't resist looking your way

When you pass by sometimes I just wish you'd stay



No, I don't think I'm smitten

I know I'm beyond that by this point

This poetry isn't entirely for you if you're wondering

I hope you're the one who gets to this reading

Because if you are, just know your beauty is endearing

And so are you, you graceful and gorgeous angel


I don't know if I referred to anyone as such

A celestial being that means so much

I can only be grateful for colliding

With you in this time in my life

Filled with questions and uncertain realities

As long as you wake up from your deep and relaxing

Sleep, I'll be more than happy to count all the sheep

Into the dreamlands I'll drift

Where I hope to see you once more

Ideas that get into the sift

The purest thought of you always uplift

Every bit and part of me

So much that not the simple eye can see

How you simply entrance the deepest part of me

As much as I'd like to expound

I am always left spellbound

By how you simply need to ask

And I'll be more than up to the task


Every beat makes me wonder

How I can breathe with the half of my heart over yonder

Maybe I lost track of time

But you walk by and the morning bells chime

And this not only makes it rhyme

It also implies your cascading essence so fine

How it trickles across the room

Into a finer acoustic tune

Bright like the summer's sunrise

Minus the rain with no surprise

Not exaggerated the lost reprise

Of intangible emotions that spread across the atmosphere

Wrapping me in a blanket of grateful contentment

Overall making a clear and resounding statement

Your voice is the only sound I want to hear

Even your whisper echoes into my ear

Soundwaves making it through loud and clear
