It seems everyone
Knew.
I was getting ****** over,
Again
Again
Again.
Everyone
But me.
I was blinded
By façades
By words
By love.
Now, I see.
The one sided Conversations.
The tears.
The lonliness.
The fears.
I’ve found Clarity,Love, Best Friends,
Freedom.
I appreciate the pain,
Because it made me more.
I love the rage, because its burned through
It all.
I’ve learned to keep
My eyes wide,
To remember it all.
I’ve seen the necessity of Appreciation,
Of savoring each
Moment.
You never know when or
If you’ll lose it.
Tomorrow
Today,
Never.
I’ve let go,
Set myself free.
I’m planning futures And ignoring fears.
I don’t know anything
But love and
Truth.
I can see the beauty in her
Eyes.
The Light in her smile,
And I’m lifted higher,
Made lighter.
The way her hair falls
Is Magic.
Her beauty is found between
Caught breaths and the pages of novels.
Her love is
pure,
Innocence,
Magnificent.
Together, we are more.
We don’t need each other
We want each other.
Our love is more
Than words
Than time
Than platonic.
Her eyes in mine fill
The silences.
Her hands on mine break
The barriers
Her mouth over mine
Builds anew.
Creates.
Sets me free.
