Oh I have met you
before
not just in this life
I know the shape of your soul
like a song I was born humming
you are not new to me
you are home

and when you say you hope
to never lose me
as if I’m something
that could slip away

I say
but love
I am yours
I always was
long before the words
before the touch
before time even thought
to bring us together
I was already
on my way to you
