When I look at you,
There's a combination of,
Love and tears and joy.
Of the torn, the unexplored.

When I look at you,
My feeling isn't real.
Isn't true
And isn't sure.

Is it something that I've done?
Or something that I haven't?
Is there something I can do?
Or something that I shouldn't?

When I look at you,
The tears they start so small,
I suppose we don't belong,
And the leaves begin to fall.

They fall down and,
No one helps them up.
Perhaps there's not enough,
Help
Me I can't breathe.
Locked in your smile,
Stay for a while.
Until this wind will pass.

When I look at you,
There's a combination of,
Love and tears and joy.
Of the torn, the unexplored.

To love is to be vulnerable; Triumph is born out of struggle; We notice shadows most when they stand alone in the midst of overwhelming light.

I feel like as I read this, that you are talking about me, even though you aren't really. It personally speaks to all the confusing emotions running through me. It's so special when a poem can do that to you.
