For My Love

You already know & always have

We both let go
Before we could finally fall
Towards the light
That we’d tried, failed to ignite

At last, you’re the perfect match
To my gasoline
Slowly evaporating
Before you found me

Sinking into the darkness
One hand outstretched
You grabbed it and pulled
With all you had left

And when the fear
Reappeared, seeping into
My open wounds
You didn’t run

You drove me home
To a place where I could finally
Lay my bones
Ease my mind

I knew I wasn’t alone
But I had lost hope
Till I let you become
All I want to know
