I stood lone in the darkness, omitted from you.


You stood there, your beauty radiant, your eyes glimmering.


Through all of my desire, I could not reach you.


You seemed so unreachable, beyond my grasp.


I desired your company, your touch, your presence.


I risked my innocence, my sanctity, my inner peace,


I risked it all for the minuscule chance that I could see you,


Hug you, kiss you, embrace you to no end.


As doubtful as it seemed, you did not abhor my desires.


You took them, and magnified them with your own.


I found you, and you accepted me.


I have found true contentment.


I have found


True happiness.
