For Katie Vance*

Folder: 
Pedestals.

brightful-

your words seem so beyond you.

they let me know, that you're thoughtful

not like other girls, in that respect.

to hear you talk, it sounds as if

you think along the same avenues, that i do

our minds are like that open road, fixed on the distance

towards where the day ends upon the horizon,

where you noticed me, basking in the beauty of a sunset

and from that same place you also caught my eye

as you were counting stars, in the night sky,

making wishes on  those that had fallen. it is,

an unspoken  priveledge to have met such soft eyes,

eager to know my own, filled with their insight.

nothing but the warmth of my heart is behind this  

poem, in appreciation of your kindness

by the pleasure of these words, i have written

for you, such honest innovations,

to bring you a smile, and move you,

where it matters most, within.

my sweet gesture speaks, as if to say

you're considered, in high regards,

by the virtue of a friend, i extend to you, my hand

should you ever need it.
