Love In Darkness
A Poem
Published in

I love you the way darkness loves a moonless night,
and how death loves the living.
There was never a me,
before you.
You came to me when I was broken,
and half-finished,
you made me believe I could be whole.
Not the type of wholeness that comes from perfection,
the kind that comes from confronting the dark
and learning to love it.
I will live and die inside that sweet darkness.
So long as you are there, too.
