Promise

I fell for that basic human endeavor, To find me a place where I made sense, Living that sleepless dream of unreal desire, Listening for songs where I belong, On this tiny speck adrift in space I call home, Quantifying the distances and spaces between us, Past the horizon from me in all directions, I found a way around the earth that led me back to you, When I looked at you I was thinking, if only, Then you looked into me and your eyes acknowledged, I pointed to that future, I said, let us get to us, You said to wake me from my dream, Indulging with me was a variability involving risk you were not willing to take, For memory of a confused yes, With lack of pictures with stories, An unnamed story of yours, entangled with mine, You became that forgotten part of my life that I can’t stop recollecting, So I do what I did promise, Till death, I will live my life.
