I don't know this feeling. All I know is that I'm drowning... Drowning in a mixture of bliss and agony... Love? Is that it? Because, if so, then... Oh my ******* God... is this ever so confusing?! 10 years 20 years 30 years 40 years 50 years?! Wow... um... That's a really long time. Will it last? No ******* clue. But still, when you find someone who meshes beautifully with your quirks, You at least have to try... Right? I know what you're thinking... "I can't do it." "I'm scared." "What if something happens?" I understand. You're bruised. I guess some people never got the message, "Hearts aren't punching bags." Those ************* don't deserve you! But, you know who does? Someone who respects you. A person who sees your worst and still ******* loves you. And if anything, I'm sure they're close by.

I don't know this feeling. All I know is that I'm drowning... Drowning in a mixture of bliss and agony... Love? Is that it? Because, if so, then... Oh my ******* God... is this ever so confusing?! 10 years 20 years 30 years 40 years 50 years?! Wow... um... That's a really long time. Will it last? No ******* clue. But still, when you find someone who meshes beautifully with your quirks, You at least have to try... Right? I know what you're thinking... "I can't do it." "I'm scared." "What if something happens?"

I wrote this in 2016 while in the throws of relationship anxiety. It was a message to myself at that moment. Ultimately, the person I was referencing is no longer close by, but that's okay. The universe had different plans. I also cringe at my usage of the word "deserve" cause I've since then found an issue with it... one that perhaps one day, I'll write a poem about. But, I decided the keep the original format, excluding a few spacing and punciation fixes.
