My forever never seemed so far away

I love you like
Spring.
You make me happy
Like the colours
Of the trees that
blossom.
Your smile
Makes my flowers
Bloom.

And therefore I only plant roses,
Just to give them to you.
I love you
You left and yet I still see you in...
In my own little world fireflies stay in open jars
Flowers paint on their colors for the next day,
And the moon laughs while it walks away.
The trees speak of ancient scars,
The creek brings up lost trinkets from afar,
And the animals cry for freedom,
But freedom is not free.
In a drop of you, I lost an ocean of me.

I crave intimacy
Not the type that subconsciously comes to mind -
The connection
Between one soul,
To another  
Bleeding pure, genuine
Devotion.
I crave fidelity
An enduring exchange
I don't want to be physically touched;
I want to feel my internal organs
Spark.
I want to embrace it  
Savoring every moment
Whatever pronoun relates to you
