i wish you every happiness
want nothing more
than for you to recognize
the light you see in me
in someone else
you deserve a person
who burns for you
who will drink up every
ounce of your care
and pour for you
from their own vessel
you deserve the sun and the stars
someone with gravitational pull
who will open the universe to you
moving you to the sublime
we have both been steeped
in so much misery
ground to dust by the man
i have to believe
it was all groundwork
for the sumptuous lives
we were meant to lead
and can only hope
we are well on our way
