You
There's this person in my mind, I always knew I loved
A face I could not see, a voice I could not hear
Love is all I felt, my heart this person knew
A hand that fit in mine, as if it had been gloved
Love I finally found, since I met my dear
This person in my mind, and it was always you
Oak
I run my finger in etched initials in park benches
Wishing to know their fate
Me+you "never"
❤️
If freedom was a part of us
Rooted deep within our souls
Why don't we scream loudly like thunder
To vanquish these ignorant foes
But these chains abide around us
We see but do not speak
These walls between our neighbors
Serve as political referees

I will speak your name with gentleness
not only when the air is still,
but even when thunder lives between us.
For even then, my love for you does not falter.
It only quiets itself
so it can listen.

I will never stop asking,
How can I love you better?
For you, I would be ten thousand times
more beautiful, more wise,
more patient, more kind.
If such a thing were possible,
I would become it.

Not for myself.
For me, I ask nothing.
But for you
I wish a thousandfold more of me.
I wish to be the kind of soft
you can rest your soul in.

I vow to grow not just old,
but whole with you
to be shaped by the seasons
of your spirit,
to remain endlessly curious
about the sacred country of your soul,
no matter how familiar it becomes.

I will trace the gentle furrows time leaves on your face
and think, always: How did I get this lucky?

When the world dims,
I will not simply stand beside you,
I will steady you.
And when joy finds us,
I will hold its shape with you,
quietly,
gratefully.

When your hands grow tired,
I will carry what they can’t.
Not out of duty,
but because loving you
makes strength feel like instinct.

Together always best when I’m with you, my love,
Your presence wraps my heart in warmth so sweet.
My fears dissolve when you’re the one I greet,
Your arms, my home, a gift from up above.  
I lay upon your chest, where heartbeats sing,
Your hold so strong yet gentle, pure and kind.
In you, I find the peace my soul’s designed,
A love that makes my spirit softly cling.  
Our bond reflects a spark of heaven’s flame,
A sacred love that time will never part.
With you, my soul has found its truest aim,
Forever bound, entwined within your heart.

Do I reach out and plead my case?
Or
    Let
          It
             Go...
