A Whole

You have to know someone really well to describe them. Everything else is lists. You only see the shape of a hand, hairs growing alone, the tiny point of an ear, you only see these things on a person you care for. You can only see these things with love. And moreover, it is only with love that you can put them together, only love that can make a whole from the parts, only love that can build a person from a pinky, a hair, an ear.
