The Poetry In You

The poetry that I attempt to write on this piece of paper already exists in you.

It’s present in the way you love, talk, and look at the beauty of people around you,

It’s in the way you make me feel like I can do bungee jumping even though I’m afraid of heights,

It’s in the way you make me feel like I can ride the highest of waves even though I’m afraid of drowning,

It’s in the way you make me feel like I can love once again even though I’m afraid of giving my love to someone again.

The poetry that I attempt to write to make someone feel moved already exists in you.

It’s in the way you go all out in your efforts just to see someone smile even though they have teary eyes and a heavy heart,

It’s in the way you go all out in your efforts just to assure someone that they are worth everything even though they feel like giving up,

It’s in the way you go all out in your efforts, unaware, just to become the best Muse one has ever had even though I thought I could never move past the writer’s block.

How can I possibly come up with words to outdo the best poetry ever written in a human form, that is you?
