wish you were here

The past weeks have been a whirlwind of emotions, feelings, changes. After months, even years of living in darkness and hiding, I have once again found myself and in doing so found you, my love. Just when I had given up on the idea, that this love I carried in my heart would surely die, go to waste or simply be consumed by self-pity and doubt you smiled at me. In the moment I saw your smiling eyes I fell. After holding your hand my heart raced to the beat of a song our love had not yet written but had already new the lyrics. And when I kissed you, when you kissed me, when we kissed, all the darkness in my life was lit by you. A new path was before me paved with the rocks that we pick, that pick us, the heart shaped stones that call to us when we hold hands and laugh at our silly nous. This love, new, in man’s idea of time, surely has been waiting for this moment to come into our life. With all of the trials, trails, and wayward promises, we endured our paths came together. We sparked and with this spark a fire was lit that will take Poseidon himself to extinguish. Because we will burn as one like the brightest of stars and oldest of galaxies, in my arms you will always be my light, my love. So on this cold night, when I yearn for you, and my lips call to yours, and my arms are empty, I send a whisper to the stars in hopes you hear,

I love you…

I wish you were here…
