Always
I always wanted you.
Even when I didn’t
know what I wanted.
Even before I knew
who you were.
It was you.
You were the chapter
that I didn’t know
the words to, but
always knew existed.
And when I finally
found it
and began to read,
I knew I was home.
The Realisation
And so I realised
When you find beautiful depths
With someone
Nothing else will ever do
No one else will ever
Be good enough
It won’t be their fault
Or yours
It’s because you’ve awakened
To the fact that mere moments
In the abyss,
holds more intimacy,
than years on the surface.
And once you become conscious of that
There is no going back to sleep.
