[Apparently I just never posted this one on here which I'm pretty sure I did but ooookay]

For days, for months, I've been trying to translate my feelings into words

But you leave me speechless every time I try to write about my fascination for you

My ability to write dissipates and I repeat myself

I can't seem to unravel the mysteries in my mind that I have yet to solve

Though I have no doubt someone with eyes as dangerously blue as yours couldn't care less

After all, you've achieved a platform to declare the inner machinations of your mind

While watching, I speak the entire time

I am unable to stop myself as I tell my friends

You are the one who with a mere gesture reshaped my world

Crowds laugh and cheer from your witty performance

They bring me back to Earth

They remind me you flourish on another plant, another solar system I could never survive in

And they leave me speechless, just as you have

They shut me up and shut me down

For you have a world to rule and someone else to help you

You and the very crowd who worship your footsteps

Leave me to wander the Earth with a chest anchored to the ground

My muscles far too weak to carry myself any farther

As every fiber in my body feels heavy and deprived of rest
