"Time, the cradle of hope.... Wisdom walks before it, opportunity with it, and repentance behind it: he that has made it his friend will have little to fear from his enemies, but he that has made it his enemy will have little to hope from his friends." ~Charles Caleb Colton

I see you almost every work day,
But you don’t see you.
I know the beauty that lies
Within you, dormant.

I want you to see you.

You’re smart,
Intelligent,
And worth every word in the dictionary.
I want to be the guy that says,
“She’s beautiful,
And mine,
And she knows it.”

I like this one because it is unusual in writing (the subject matter - at least i think so) but ordinary in the world.

I like this one because it is unusual in writing (at least for me it is) but ordinary in the world. one thing I thought could MAYBE have a tweak - "You're smart, Intelligent," is maybe saying the same thing twice, right? how about "I want you to see you." and then "Clever you, The you worth every word in the dictionary" okay, I'm sorry. I said WAY too much :(
