Suddenly I see

How can forever not seem like enough, and the sky never seem big enough?

Because I want to point to the sky from the grass and I want to say "my love for her could fill the entire thing" -- but the sky needs to be bigger, it needs to expand to feel everything I feel. Everything that jumps in my heart when I see her, when I walk in and it's arms and bodies and holding so close you'd think there was nothing else to living than that.

And breathing little whispers; I missed you, I love you, you're so beautiful--that's all there is to the world, breathing out secrets and touching lips, wishing the sky were a bigger place where you could show your love, instead of whispering it, instead of desperately trying to say it so much that it goes beyond having to shout it and to having to say it secretly.

Having to say it when I see those beautiful eyes, I say it when I touch her hand, I say it when I kiss her lips & I say it when we close our eyes and black out the rest of the world, so it can fill up all the space where everything else may have been.

& so if I could I would clear out all the clouds from the sunset sky and I would write my love like a million letters, fly them into the air like birds to fill up the blue and leave the world knowing where my heart beats the hardest. Let the world know where the colors come from, let them know what it feels like to be home in the arms of the girl that you love.

& It's like falling over and over again, and forever is never long enough to be with her.
