A B C... Z

Now,

right now,

I would love to give you

everything you want.

I would love to be

all that you need

to connect all the dots

for you

A to B to C to Z

But I can’t.

I can give you what you want.

I can give you what you need.

But I can’t complete your picture

for you

a to b to c to z.

This is your masterpiece.
Yours alone
to complete.

A to B to C to Z.

from C.S. Lewis:

"To love at all is to be vulnernable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket ~safe, dark, motionless, airless~ it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable."
