You Make Me A Better Man

It was us
Just us, holding hands
Bounded, unconditionally
Natural in its course ​​​​

​I look down
And it was us
Just us, holding hands
And then I lost myself

At that moment I was able to defy our realities
I looked up and everything that surrounded your angelic face
Was a numbing blur
An ephemeral passing of light and matter

And you stood there in front of me
Transcendent and translucent

I began to look at how slowly
The delicate features of your face moved
To make a smile that was so stimulating
That it lifted me from my being, defying gravity

You make me a better man

And then in the corner of my eye
I saw how your hair moved
Each individual strand flowing
As it ran like waves
Delicately crashing ashore
Rippling through my soul

You make me a better man

You then took your other hand and placed your hair behind your ear
And I then whispered how I loved you
How you can make a once emotionless man, tear

And then they perked
Your ears
Just making you that much more perfect
In that standstill in time

You make me a better man

And then you conquered my heart
Once again
Those gentle eyes, spellbinding
Taking my despair, and shining hope
So soft and so subtle, so everlastingly memorized
That it powers and pierces my heart

You make me a better man

Not noticing
I tell you I love you and because of you
I tell you that I am a man that can stop time
Defy gravity
And do the impossible

You make me a better man

I then tuned back life
Everything was back to normal
And as I looked down

It was us
Just us, holding hands
Bounded, unconditionally
Natural in its course ​
