Universe

For My Sister ♥

There is a tiny universe
Spinning behind your eyes
And I miss seeing it sparkle
When you really smile

Always so far away, and so full of stories
You have your own world
That we can only see from the lookout

But every once in a while
We are lucky enough to touch it
And get sucked into the beauty within
Before we see that it is only the beginning

You are always in love
Not with a person
But with life and everything you can imagine

Music plays when your mind reels
Photographs spill from your point of view
And words live in your fingertips

But you are growing so distant
Constantly changing

I desperately miss your intelligence, your laughter,
And witty words that used to fill
The air between us
Instead of the thick fog that divides us

I am afraid that, before I know it
I won’t know you at all.

Sounds to me like you do know. This is a person you know more than you probably even acknowledge you know. The way you are able to describe inner qualities, rather than outer qualities... that shows this person has truly made an impression on you. Such a positive presence she seems to have. A true beauty.

There comes a time when the clouds roll in and a storm begins to dwell. Maybe this person is lost? Maybe this person is going through a transition? The best thing to do, is always be there. No matter the distance. The time always comes when this person will need you. Or the clouds will clear, and they will again shine as bright as ever. Always search for the good in a person hoping the bad to soon disappear.

Only correction:

Always so far away, and so full of stories
You have your own world
That we can only see it from the lookout

This is absolutely beautiful.
When I was reading it through it kind of reminded me of myself.
I was trying to find a favorite part in it but I liked the whole thing.
It was beautiful.
Great write.
