Maybe there’s a parallel universe where you and I aren’t just a fantasy, where we don’t have to ask ourselves “What if?”

Where fear doesn’t overcome flutters
Where I dive into your wave
Drink you up
Know your taste
Feel your force
See your flaws
And love you hard

Where we get lost
Find our way
Push each others limits
Paint trails on maps with the colors of memories
Spill oxytocin each eye lock

Fail miserably and keep trying
Dance in lights and fumble in shadows
Venture on the horizon

Spin webs of little life
Watch them ebb and flow
Sprout and spread their wings

Satiate and settle into one another
Feel the gentle fade of youth
Whisper under starlight
Transcend to paradise

Maybe that world exists
But the reality is that we’ll never know

I’m grateful that never knowing allows for the preservation of this perfect picture

I’ll never come to dive in your wave
Drink you up
Know your taste
Feel your force
See your flaws
Or love you hard

But I’ll never fail to meet this expectation
Never disappoint you
Never deceive you
Never resent you
Never insult you
Never condemn you
Never patronize you
Never lie to you
Never lose you

And vice versa

This is no Greek tragedy
This is a perpetual masterpiece

Your life will go on flourishing
Mine will grow and bloom

We’ll always have day dream to measure reality against and to keep striving towards

Always have airwaves syncing our souls

Your magic blood with always make my pulse accelerate

You’ll always have a handprint on my heart

I hope you find a love like this in this world
This lifetime
The one that got away
