oh

even in december
you know the year will
begin anew
the freezing snow
will become summer dew
the cold will release
in time for you to get through
its not about being stuck
its not about luck
its about love and time
its about drawing the line
in the silhouette of your body
along the paper of your skin
its about working a way
from the outside in
finding the common ground
a place to begin
seeing how blessed
i am to be
allowed to know
allowed to see
and how amazing
you must be
to have found your way
inside of me
to know a year begins
and begins again
to want you near me
until the end
winters and summers
each fall and spring
everything is beautiful
with you everything
is a new experience
a way of seeing the world
