1557 km

fifteen hundred fifty seven kilometers where I belong with her
thirty two years not one two many as we paint the wind and stir
the ocean told her that I was on my way and her heart felt the same
leaving no promises unkept no guilt no time no sensless shame
this heart, its a fragile vessel made for smooth sailing smiling faces
compassion is our compass guide us to our favorite places
she gives so much more than she will ever need or ask for
she places value on the transcendence of the human core
she would give you the heart from her chest if you were me
i laugh with her about the difference between a B and a bee
she smiles like a child so damn happy and so damn free
patronizing obstacles as if we even had the time to breathe
i believe in her so much with conviction pure like salt
two hundred thousand years from now I still wont find a fault
in awe of her being her face and her place she gives it all away
i dream of no more airplanes to come and take this day
and here i am in gratitude undeserving in my own place
i knew i loved her long before I ever saw her face
but she loves me loves me loves me so i take the whole world in
naturally quietly I fall into peace and sink into her skin
in the presence of a twenty thousand and one collective mind
she is all i can see to the rest of the world i am blind
never before have i known my days to live this passionately
she's the B to my U and the U to my me
