To Dance With Love and Loss
by @unnamed-2
Holding you in my arms as we move to music, is a feeling I can't describe. The way we move to the beat shows just how lovely you are. You move as a flower in a long lost field, the breeze takes you as if no one is looking and your ballad of motion begins. 5 days from now I will realize that I am dancing with Love and Loss.
Alone on this hill over looking each of our worlds, alone in this life holding only to each other. A regret comes and tugs at my mind as I pull you under the covers. 4 days from now I will realize that I am dancing with Love and Loss.
At dinner that evening you gave me a glance that I knew I would soon remember. Remember when we danced our way into another heart break? How hard it was to unravel the strings of Love and Loss. 3 days from now I will realize that I am dancing with Love and Loss.
Today I asked your father if it was ok to marry you. He said he had always wanted a son that would love as he was. He said I was your world, and that all you ever needed was me. 2 days from now I will realize that I am dancing with Love and Loss.
I just want to feel important, not loved, not needed, not happy or satisfied. 1 day from now I will realize that I am dancing with Love and Loss.
All I needed was you, but not for love. I needed you to show me that loves great twine was an eternal knot.
Now I know that I am Love and Loss.
I'm sorry.
