you have my word

I have never met anyone as beautiful as (you) are

I (have) never known anyone

I wanted to keep for as long as I can think

and I have never met anyone so complementary;

you are the words to (my)poem

as rain is to rainbows

The (word)s to this poem in fact

My insecurity came as I wrote this

As I fear judgment and failure

I smiled as my heart burst with emotion

like intense bleeding from a major artery that's been cut

My emotions flow like a fatal bleed

Heart racing, blood pressure rising

Will you be the tourniquet that saves me?
