Close is never close enough,
Forever is much too short,
"Love" is an insufficient term,
To describe you and I.
We are forever embedded in each other,
Whether physically or not,
You will always be part of me,
The best part.
Your fingertips etch memories,
Into my skin.
Your lips engrave my body,
With nothing less than perfection.
You rooted yourself,
In a place much deeper than my heart.
And blossomed more quickly,
Than I ever could have imagined.
Your words linger in my mind,
More often than my own thoughts.
And your image is constantly,
Replaying itself on repeat.
Your smile is the brightest light,
I have ever seen.
A much needed remedy,
In such a dark, dark world.
Your hair is entangled,
In my broken heart.
Keeping it sound,
And wound together.
Your eyes see things in me,
That I knew not to exist.
As mine see things in you,
That were once thought a myth.
"Love"? No...
That term is insufficient.
This requires a new term.
For we have created something new.
Nothing means anything anymore.
Because you are everything.
And everything is you.
Therefore, everything is mine.
So yes... let us sift through the ashes.
I will follow you through revelations.
I will burn the world myself,
If that's what you ask of me.
Close is never close enough,
Forever is much too short,
"Love" is an insufficient term,
To describe you and I.
Did not do her justice and probably never will.
