Megan

Today i want to tell you that i'm thinking of you

I want to do it in some way

that will surprise a smile into your eyes

write it in the sky

spilling smoke behind me like a cloud of ink

against the deep blue waves

or drop it in small notes like a trail

all over the streets

that you'll follow like a mystery

till you get to the twist the end

and there i'll be

thinking as hard as I can about you

who and what you are

with your tendrils of thought

curling around your hair and shooting

like stars from your mouth

directed by your hands into these detailed explosions

dreams that grow like mist on paper

and reach out to tangle my eyes

in their ideas and feelings and screams

and I can't get enough of them

so here I am with my fingers stretching far

trying to tell you

I am thinking of you

and how wonderful you are

I am thinking of you

and how much I love you

Happy Birthday.
