[hometext] => I find it odd when we act as if we miss the little things in someone, generally superficial, sometimes not, especially when deep down, you could pick out nearly everything in a heartbeat.
[bodytext] => You always say I never notice But you see, Never takes Always for a ride sometimes And I am a liar, I know you changed your hair. Though parted still on the left, I see a break, where a red ribbon Holds in place the contrasting dark hair Lazily waving its way backwards into What would appear an arbitrary and Chaotic knot. But you see, I know better. Such a knot was Carefully crafted to mimic Spontaneity. As if combining your duality Into one symbol unintentionally Defining finally the method of your madness. In between, your eyes are not aesthetically breathtaking But fear not, I have seen the potential they Possess to unabashedly engender the triumph That you seek, and I must note the sage green harboring Flecks of brown that seem to proudly declare Independence from asymmetry. As eyes often tend to be More beautiful than their reflection in a mirror, These too happen to be two emerald emblematic Ambassadors to a mind I will never have the privilege Of personally experiencing. Between your shirt and your jeans you have left Your skin exposed, about the size of the spine of a book in an Oddly opposite fashion, as the bareness is more akin to the words Of your body, while the rest is merely a cover. Judge not a book by its cover, We must read to find true meaning. Again I find the Small contradiction Of your conservative style to this few inches of exposure alluding To what one could only assume as a “wild side” Alluring. But more importantly this small strip of parchment, Though but a passage in the book, speaks volumes for confidence. The cross you bear Around your neck Speaks altogether less for you as it does your world As you subtly transform the naïve beliefs of a little girl Into a message, a morality, a foundation on which you Endure. And though I do not share your faith, I admire you for it. We must all find our road to walk if we are to live so tried In hopes you and I will take our inevitability in stride. Be not scared to trust, for trust is love and love is hard. You say I Never notice, but I know you try, through humor and sadness, To hide quality and fault, and I, I see them all, I trust them all, I love them all.
