Poems for Paintings

I'm trying to think of rational ways to tell you 

that you have become my universe.

How do you tell someone that they pull you together completely?

That they keep you in orbit.

That they created the tides that tug at your insides.

You can't.

Because what if it all unhinges, 

and your planets aren't aligned?

And your sun burns out because you relied on it too much?

Now it's all dark and you can't even see the stars in their eyes anymore.

Sometimes the world might feel too big for you.

When you're standing in large crowd.

When you fly on an airplane.

When you think of far off places.

When you stand at the bottom of a tall building.

It's ok to feel that way.

Anyone can get wrapped up in their life.

Anyone can forget about others.

But sometimes we need to be reminded that the world is big.

Even if its too big sometimes.
