I met you. Closed off.
Reluctant to love.
Like a child taking its first steps
Thrust out waiting for someone to catch you, should you fall
Running from the beginning,
Fearing the end
Your eyes begging me with a narrated hesitation
You surrendered to me
Full of grace and simplicity.
You entangled me
I watched you from a distance
I watched you through a mirror
A reflection of myself in your eyes
You let me in
I entered you with the willingness to endure
your silhouette .. your shape
in the lights of the night around us.
bodies moving in unison
Surge of life and passion
My love for you is certain
When you are weak I will provide strength
When you are unsure, I will remind you
When you are desolate I’ll offer my embrace
When we get lost
Let’s drive for miles,
And wind up where we started.
This incantation
A piece of my imagination
The conception of a life I can imagine
A love so deep and so true
I will follow the tempo of your breath
Lead me where you wish
I will follow with trust in your hands
I believe you will find me shall I go missing
For what you need, I need too
What you are, I am too.
