You Are

You Are


You are my soundtrack,
You are my perfect chorus,
You are like a fresh cup of poetry,
Just the way I like, so original,
Yet, so hot like boiled water,
But I don’t want my lips to burn,
So I softly blow, just to get you in the right temperature,
So I could have a sip, or maybe a taste, even better, I could have the whole cup,


You give me inspiration,
You give me something to believe in again,
It’s like breathing air but you can’t see it,
It’s the way your eyes gaze at me, and then a smile follows,
It’s the way you carry yourself when am around you,
You can’t see it, but I can feel it,


You are,
You are………
That sunrise that lives a bright patch in my bedroom,
That sunrise I would like to heat up on, on a cold winter morning,
That sunrise that got me jumping out of bed to open up my window curtain,
That sunrise, which got me saying, it’s going to be a beautiful day.
