you & me

Jordin Lee

there is the you
and there is the me
the whom that is here
the whom that is there
and when I hear the voice that is yours
that has grown from nigh to now
of which I have not heard from your first days as youth
but in your middle days as the you that you are now
I find you positively lovely
and
radiant
and
gorgeous
in your care
in your wear
of the strength you carry
within your blue navy bag simplicity
that silently begs the question to new formalities
where has your value gone?
your care I misinterpret
I’m sorry that I do
I cannot help dismissing the realization that you really love me too
