You are like
Something along the lines of
Hopeful sips of light
A drink to keep me up
All night, because the dark
Never minded company

Or maybe a line in a song
That goes
"I'll tell you one thing,
It's always better
When we're together"
Because the truths
Are in the music
Of love and life

A bolt of lightning
Across the rainy skies
Of this lonely state
A rebellious ember
Who sits, smoldering
With the heat of held hands
Even when the others have
Gone cold

A free spirit
Who strums out the chords of;
Can this be so?
And the question isn't yours
Because you already played;
Of course
And the smile that crosses my face
Is as genuine as
The words that follow

Just as a prince will battle
For his princess
In far off lands
Dulling his blade on bones
Of lust and envy
I will see you
And know that the most
Difficult valley to traverse
Is worth my time
If when I come to the end
You are there

Once again
I am brought to reality
With another smile
And throughout my head
Run the same words
Over and over and over
A beautiful song on repeat

*I love you

Swim upon the truths you know
before you choose to drown in mine.
Cherish them for what they are,
without reasons to define.
Every angle,
from all angles.
Every measured,
tapered line.
Leads to a point,
a point of being,
frequencies that always rhyme.

Clashing symbols to make noises,
symbolize just how you feel.
Wear that feeling on your face
Someday you will know what's real.
Wear it proudly on our faces.
Someday we will know what's real.
