I stare at you; you think I’m seeing all of your imperfections, when in reality, I’m noticing everything that is so disturbingly perfect about you.
I watch your whispers as they dance off your lips,
Telling stories of your yesterday
And your hopes for our tomorrow.
I’ve watched tears stream down your cheeks as you beg me to never leave your side.
I’ve seen pain and torment
Utter joy and resilience
Flicker
Like bolts of lightning
Across your saturated eyes.
I feel like you see me for everything I didn’t
Think anyone else would ever know of me.
I feel like you hear and understand my thoughts before I’ve even
Thought to think them.
I feel your soul mesh with mine,
As it fills in the missing pieces of the unfinished puzzle
Of myself.
I feel every wonderment, happiness and hurt that shivers down your spine.
I feel at ease and at home wrapped in the comfort of your energy;
Your love.
It haunts me though,
With the wonders of who. What. Where. Why. And when…
I must force myself to not question the now
Over the indefininance of a possible tomorrow.
My world has quickly found its axis,
Revolving around a single soul.
Your slurs spin me around
That point and tell me that everything is going to be
Okay
As long as my axis doesn’t sway too far from you,
Which is undoubtedly
My ultimate fear.
My anchor. My love. My best friend. My one. My forever.
Regardless of our tomorrow;
I love you for our now.
You’re everything I didn’t know I wanted and everything
I didn’t think I’d ever have.
