I've been around and looking for quite a while for something that i would say i like
loved
made into me

and i went and looked around for it on the skies,
the mountains,
the plains,
the deep city,
the wild rains,
the paths not taken,

and it was good that i looked
i could tell people I've experienced this,
experienced that,
tasted this,
loved that,
loved it, and hated it
loved it, and forgot it
embraced that, and regretted

i could describe everything that ever worked
and everything that didn't
and everything i would have wanted instead
but never tried
regretted not trying

i had spent my time
finding out what i liked
and at the same
finding out what i hated
finding out what i would rather have

and spent the thereafters
thinking what i could want next
or thinking of what the best of them was
if ever i cave, and return

but in that summer night, when i had the chance to try everything once again
experience everything i thought i have wanted, once again
for it were the rarities of my adventures experiencing them
that made me think they are the ones meant to last

when the best of everything were at my fingertips,
when i could reach and hold
lean and kiss
taste and love
perhaps love

you came to my life again
rather, i did the small little step of letting you in
you weren't the rarest
the most exorbitant
the most valuable
even the most describable

but it clicked
you were my first adventure into everything
you were the hometown that made me wonder about the megalopolis
as the sky, you were the air
as the sun, you were my candle
you made me happy, and unhappy, and that is everything i ever needed
from April 2023
i honestly don't remember making this too, but i know someone like me would have wrote it
