On the walls of your new room
I had drawn a portrait of you
with the pencil i had found on your bed
your hair, they were branches
and they overlooked the rooftops
I took an endless sleep underneath their shadow
vertical lakes in the place of your eyes
blue and green water dripped slowly on your chest
and flowed through my giant joined hands
washed my ears and cleared my thoughts
i've always painted you as a leafy forest
limitless for the eyes, incomplete for the heart
I've always painted you as the deepest ocean
no man has ever discovered your heart of darkness
I would like to be the sky or a satellite
and revolve around you eternally
to finally see you wholly
and draw you as you really are
It's the everlasting issue
of really getting to know someone
to find a good perspective
and start digging inside
