Your voice,
and my heart.

Stuttering.

Together, as the anxiety pours out of my voice.
"I love you"

Slips out of my mouth as I stare into your eyes.
Once again I am whole,

Knowing full well that the world has much purpose,
Simply because you are in it.

My body ignites and I am in your arms.
"Forever"
You say.

Together, in that moment.
We are truly synced to one another's soul.

Simply combining those simple words
Has us marked for the most painful journey.

Losing your heart, for the sake of someone else.
Their attention,
Their scent,
Their conversation,
Mind, Body, Spirit.
Their beauty.

"I will love you forever"

I say Flawlessly.
