feels

less like limbo
and more like solid ground

and hazy dreams of vivid green trees
and a soft summer breeze and effortless ease
no longer feel like their from a different world

now that all the ice has melted,
it might just be very real, indeed
and it feels like love, i'll show you why

I love YOU and your autumn eyes and your prose,
your gentle courage and unshielded heavy heart
your smirk i'd know anywhere and teal and grey
love that you're the opposite side of the coin that's right when i'm wrong,
and i swear to god, you're so very strong, love that sorry was somehow enough
and i cant help but think there might be something more to grey than you think

I love YOU and your dancer legs and your comforting gaze
love your eyes of springtime and blue skies you have to work for
love that you're at the top of my list, love that you're a bar to reach
love that you guide me to lighter, brighter, taller, better
love that sunshine inside you that surrounds you and you glowwith it
your green growth like tall forests of unrelenting life inside
green, it's the color of healing, you're the color of healing

I love YOU and your summer skin and your freckled nose
your tears and your teeth, bony fingers and knobby knees
love the see-saw we sit on, love the conflicts we sift through
love that despite everything i still need you
and you need me too
i love the love that spells "everlasting",
like the blending of red and blue that connects me to you

i love you and i love me and i love this life i landed in,
and i know it's as perfect as every life before it
