what you and i know
is a gift

pleasure

the knowing
you can turn
yourself inside
back outright

and only

to still be held
in the embrace
of another’s eyes
as beautiful
despite the
wrinkles
or smudges
against clean
perfection

i am
a movement
when stillness
is societies rule

it is you
that I am sober
to reality for
just you
that I am without
vice for

you are
my muse
my mentor
my child learning
my contemplated
thoughts invented
for your judgment
is never discerning

inside out
upside down
straight lines
turned from doubts
to smile

you
that i confess to
you i follow
through

you
i fall into
when i need
to ache

you
i seek
when the belief
that i
can be pretty
sought after
loved
and bought
for no cost
is impending

you that
my ink crys for
longs for
lusts for
and belongs for

you
in simplicity
you that has
become
one within me

you are
not
the star that
seeks
the night
to burn out
in a fizzle

you are
a firefly
breezing
through my wind
on a sigh

but i
realize now
nothing
can compare
to the one (you)

Brad,
  There is only one you. Thanks for always being there for me.  No matter what "me" I am each day.
No one will ever do for me what you have done.

Much love,
  Kristy
