I Love You Like

When we were picturesque,
and the paint was fresh,
you traced the lines running to
and from my heart.

I lost all consciousness,
traveled without rest
as if I never knew
how to depart,

but if I must digress,
using my own brush,
I'll say the greatest truth
to you with art.

Jay, you have a talent for sounding like an old man. (I hope you know I mean that in the best possible way.)

I know what you mean. I think it's because I became so jaded at an early age.
