You.
Sometimes, words lie. They are unreLIEable, anyway. Because how could a word that holds so much weight be so small and contained?
Like, for example, You.
Y
O
U
Even in all capital letters,
it's not large enough

Even in all capital letters,
it's not large enough
Little letters, each holding one another's hands, packed together into
You.
when You are really the ocean & every grain of sand
I.
That's a different story. I is different from You, you know, because it stands straight and tall and isn't as full as You. I doesn't need to be as full as you because I is not as full as You.
I can also turn into Me which gives me variety, but as for you, there is only You.
I can become the number 1 in Times New Roman Numerals, but yOu can only be YoU,
( even when you write it like that )
and that just isn't fair.
It isn't because You are
YOU

as big as the world itself

Sometimes, people fall asleep and they never wake up again because their hearts stop beating and they stop breathing. Their eyelids close and their pupils get smaller and the irises stay their color and stare straight ahead at the back of the blackness of the eyelid and they breathe in one last time and their hearts start stopping, they
beat

that's when we need a bigger word for You
because the hole left by you is larger than the universe itself.
That hole sucks all the air out of my world like a vacuum and I can't breathe
and if That hole of You could take all that air away,
we are obviously in need of a bigger word.
