I want to write you something.
I can’t write about you.
To put you into words would diminish you.
You were never meant to be a sentence,
No more than lines on a page.
Not even a book,
But a library.
And still that isn’t enough.
A library has shelves, order, an end.
You don’t end.
I would need every word ever written,
And then the ones we haven’t made yet,
The ones no language has built room for.
I want to write you something.
I’m still trying.
