if only i could be like you.

i look you,
and i wonder.
why cant i speak in poetry like you do?
why cant my mind form beautiful sentences like yours does?
i could say that i want to be like you and leave it at that,
but my tongue is clumsy
and just can't find the right words for even that small amount.
every single word you say is like a symbol,
a symbol for something beyond our presence.
i want to be able to just sit down, and let the words flow out like i imagine yours do,
so beautifully and gracefully.
it just feels like youre reaching out and holding the hands of the people who need it most,
telling them so personally that it will be ok, that you believe in them,
even though you havent the slightest idea who they are.
but it doesnt matter, cause everyone deserves that.
like the things you speak of so often,
everyone deserves a hand to hold,
a person to listen to them.
a person to tell them that it will be ok.
and you-
you do all those things, so far away yet so close at heart.
you are my biggest inspiration,
and i just hope you see that you,
you are that person to many people.

if there's no reason not to...

why not do something just to do it, right?
who knows what will come out of it.
