i am persuaded by your silence
     you are—bravery!
the intelligence of your guidance
the small, high & great cheek bones
your creation
Short, medium, tall, young and old
the length of your coarse, curly, straight,
dark—groom hair
the strength, shape of the rose tattoos
golden, sharp eyes,
like the stars amongst the sky,
shape somewhat like the mystical moon
    ‘You—inspire me!
to want the best in me, even when i may
    appear—silly & as a ‘fool,’
I am persuaded to want to know you,
   *fiery great spirit—brilliance you!
the blooming rose—display
   like prayers everyday
i wish to know you
I wish to love you
in your silence; the symbolic
    beautiful—you!
*an self awareness
