Beautiful Person

Dedicated to the beautiful people for whom I live.

My beautiful person, what makes you so?

It's how you see the world around that shapes your inner world

The grace isn't yours - you're just mimicking dancing leaves

Your dazzling sight's a memory of the sharp blade of a sword

Your carefree is something you've seen birds doing up in the open sky

Your passion is borrowed from people and cars running by, rushing to live, rushing to die

The kindness comes not from you - you're reflecting what you've managed to see in me

You're eager to show me my own grace, my own glory

One touch, one push is all I need from someone like you

To crawl out of my corner and see the things you see

To do the tings you do

Your honesty heals, your words support

Oh beautiful person, the things you do to me!

You cross my path so rarely... Correction - I'm too slow to catch up with you

You're on top of the world, independent from all these heathens 

There you are, standing and smiling, my archangle 

You're waiting for me to come closer

You know I will. You know I' long for your touch 

My sins fade with your touch

Each word you say gives me bliss

When we meet you cleanse my soul off humanity's poison 

I treasure every moment

Everything you said

Every items that had witnessed us together

I  can't make myself take off those ragged, filthy jeans

That silly playboy shirt I used to dislike

I even sleep with my cap on - the one you bought me

I persuade myself that I can prolong the bliss by wearing these clothes

Which still have your fingerprints on them

Which reek with your essence 

And my sweat

It's +40 C outside, damn it!

Why am I doing this?

Every time we meet I wear these uncomfortable clothes

Like you can feel my discomfort

Like you know, you adorable scammer, that I'll be wearing those for a while

Like you're giving me a lesson 

"Comfort is understand the meaning of comfort"

Until we meet again that silly cap will save me daily

Oh beautiful person, why you do this to me?

I've long stopped hoping

Never waited for anything in return

Neither do you

But the difference between me and you is that you're beautiful

You see the beauty around, the beauty inside

And hope for the best

You seem so perfect

I feel like nothing

That's why I cry and deny your praises

Now that I've confessed my feebleness

I must seem so miserable to you

Yet you wipe my tears and laugh at my face

"You deserve this and you know it"

"Let go of pride and accept my kindness"

"What hurts the most is your politeness"

"Grace appears when you don't expect it"

"By being so stubborn you let it disappear, and never be accepted"

"Kindness accepted and given warmth will always return"

"Shut up an accept the compliment" 

Author's Note

Dedicated to my beautiful person, and all of you beautiful people out there.
Got emotional all of a sudden. Wrote all this on a single breath, and not planning to edit or change. It came right from my heart, which means it's just perfect.

Speaking in the plural, I will allow my ego this one small indulgence... thank you, from the heart that is an allegory of all mystery.
