you write love songs
eyes closed, peaceful
breathing brand new days
because you
smiled
you found me in the torn creases
old newspapers and magazines
forgotten in the shadows
because you
lifted the sun and brought light
you held me, healed what was broken
pulled back heavy darkness
because you
sang
you found me in ether
held me tight
nothing is the same
because you
loved me
because you
because you
because you
