The distance was closed.
My heart was open.
After all those years, I had you.
I held you in my hand, speechless.
Powerless to stop it, I felt myself becoming comfortable
and it was bliss.

We were everything we thought we’d be
He was him and I was me
I had lost hope I’d live to see
But meeting him was ecstasy
Now we know the stark beauty
Of I as I and him as he.

Do not break me.
I am so fragile.
You’ve seen how one word rattles inside of me
Shaking me apart like cruel earthquakes.
I place my trust in you.
Be gentle, for I am broken, though
I am not beyond repair.

Free at last,
Overwhelmed by new hopes, I felt you
Reach in and take me back.
Vast, wonderful,
Incredible love.
Nothing compares to you.
Carve your name into the walls of my being.
Everything I have ever wanted, you are
Nearer to me
Than anyone else could have hoped to be.

It isn’t over.
Don’t you dare believe that voice.
We’ll make it happen.

Our eyes, like mirrors,
reflect what we have needed.
Desire, hope, comfort, happiness,
Love.
How is it that they are the same?

I felt your pain wash away.
My whole life I’ve been told,
“You’re a healer.”
I never felt much like one.
Not until I saw, for the very first time,
True Happiness in your eyes.
I had seen you laugh,
but your laughter had never taken over you
until that moment.
The way your face lit up
In the morning
when we woke up, intertwined,
I’ll hold that in my heart forever.

It’s the roughness of new pages,
the feeling of a stone, well weathered-
the kind you brush your hand across in awe
as you make your way to the cliffs
and look down at the sea.
It’s something magical, that is.
Knowing that it’s only right now, that you may never go back,
Only makes it moreso.
Take in every detail.
Keep those scents, those sights, those sounds, with you.
Darkness will return, and you will cry.
Let those be your light.
Drown that sadness, as it has done you.

I waited for you.
No, that’s not true.
You waited. You stayed
while I drank in what I thought were the pleasures of life.
I had convinced myself of it.
Then, I met you
And I knew that I should have waited.

Even now, I can smell you.
I can feel your skin on mine.
If I close my eyes and take myself back,
surrounded by green,
I can breathe you in once more.
I kissed you.
I felt your lips pressed to my forehead
our legs entangled,
our selves released.
Dancing, we were dancing,
though we stood still.
You bring forth my purities, blinking at the light.
I am so thankful for you.
