i know that i fall in love
with any soul
that shows me the least bit of kindness

a warm smile
a hopeful glance
thoughtful words
and outstretched hands

i suppose that's why i'm in my current predicament
that is why my heart is beaten, twisted, bent

you-

with your eyes that scream "stay"
you, with your musical laugh
and that beautiful way-
you exist, you thrive, you radiate-
a feeling of adventure and "come what may"
you emit starlight in the midst of day.

and you-

your intricate words take every bit of breath
that i have ever held captive
that i have ever possessed
your beauty graces my eyes
simultaneously breaking my heart
the way you steal those glances
tears my very universe apart.

but also you-

you tell her you love her
(must you look at me like that)
you love her
(then why, dear god, why do you talk to me like that)

still you remain so exquisitely woven
your mind is eccentric yet ornate
your heart is wicked yet golden
you invade my dreams
i don't recall ever granting you permission
you scoff at the thought
you grant yourself admission

which one is it

you,
or you,
or you

or no one

take my hand and watch me burn.
