i never would have understood this poem had i not met this person who
"turns people into eachs/ and cowards into grow". his very nature pulls
(demands) the honesty, uniqueness, and individuality out of people who
typically may not give themselves openly and brings courage to people who
normally wouldn't have it. "our can'ts were born to happen" is my favorite
line; we both have this insane tenacity to prove everyone wrong about
ourselves, especially to ourselves. "Our mosts have died in more", we both
seek to exceed our own expectations (and seem to do so everyday when we're
in each other's sight). Its truly a phenomenon to meet someone who does so
much in my life! "night cannot be so sky/ sky cannot be so sunful" -
somewhere along the way i am looking for him to disappoint me, but he
hasn't (yet?). But my own greatness is made tangible through him; it didn't
seem as real before he was around ("i am through you so i").
