Words are my medium.
\nAnd melodies.<\/p>\n
Color and composition
\nare yours.<\/p>\n
We’ve always been two sides
\nof a canvas,
\na piece of paper,
\nTwo voices in a song,
\nharmonizing,<\/p>\n
but after all these years,
\nI’ve learned to see–
\nthe way the colors fit,
\nthe way a scene leads the eye.<\/p>\n
When the light shifts a certain way, I’ll call,
\nCome, see this!
\nAnd you come
\nbringing a camera. You’ve learned to trust
\nmy eyes.<\/p>\n
You are curious about words,
\nrolling them in your mouth,
\nfitting them into your understanding.<\/p>\n
And you’re my best editor.
\nNo one but you knows that word, you’ll say.
\nChoose one everyone can understand.
\nYou are almost always right.<\/p>\n
How lucky we both are
\nto have found our other half.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
