Fully Understand

I don't know how I can ever really know you.
You surprise me
with depth I knew was there
  but wasn't used to.
You seem to soar above me
and spew wisdom
and private thoughts
  that I contemplate
and I can't think of anything to say 'till after you're gone.

You make my heart ache.
And I wish I could fix things
But I don't know how.

And I wish I could verbalize things
a little better,
Because I want you

to be in awe of me
on account of sheer words
  meant to Intice
           Incite
           Ignite
And you douse me.
And I am in awe of you.
