I do this all the time
but i’ve never done it with someone like you
you with a quiet stare
you with strong but soft hands
you with lips that bring me to my hands and knees
you with family trauma
you with a depth so special, so true
you with a thousand talents
you with grace
-
me i’m nobody
but you, you’re the entire world
in my eyes you are so perfect it makes me sea sick
lightheaded and scared
to me, you are quite honestly the most beautiful person I have ever known
and I have known a lot of beautiful people
-
i’m searching for the words to try to say this
it’s a fucking mess
I’ll trip and I’ll stumble
if I say what I truly mean
I’ll be thrown overboard
but i’m not getting any younger and the years aren’t getting any slower
so here’s a try —
-
I have fallen so deep into you
i’m afraid I can never get out
because i’d learn what death feels like
I have become so intertwined with your soul I feel the roots growing between us
there is no growing back now
so here is what I propose to you —
-
how about forever together?
