[sionofangels]

this is breathing
when your lungs will not push
this is believing
when all faith is gone
but most of all
this is loving
when nothing is certain

my plea
the one i've made every minute from then to now
my thoughts focused;
my eyes open

it's not pushing a button
and it's not knowing an answer
it's waiting
because there's something worth waiting for.

what you've forgotten
things blind to
this is what must be remembered:

two beautiful hazel eyes
soft lips of pale red
freckled skin aching to be touched
ten toes one more special than the others
ears, left and right, metal mixed with flesh

but this is just the body
which is nothing without the soul:

a brilliant mind, full of wonder
kind and gentle heart, still filled with youth
patience and forgiveness, infinite in quantity

this is all him
but comes not close to him
because he has to be lived
to be experienced
to be loved
only then can you cherish him,
the way i do.

for you i'll grow
for you i'll see
for you i'll search
and for you i'll hear
cause i was the deaf one
listening to no one
and you were the one with the gift of sound
understanding all that was said
"what fools we are as men
go count me in"

here i am,
naked
saying the only thing i know is true:
"more than ever i love you"
and with that comes the promise,
that i'll be true,
i'll be caring and patient
listening and understanding
learning from you who teaches so much
but asks so little in return
all this and more
when we step back into "we"

...all with time...
