True Love (Poem)

Life is one way.

Something happens and then it changes.

A new,

Expanded perspective on life is what it gave us.

Why did we meet?

And why did it happen only now?

I feel like life has never been complete without you around.

I've done my healing and I've surrendered myself to life.

I've suffered,

I've laughed,

I've loved,

And I've cried.

But none of these feelings can describe what I'm feeling for you.

It's like life is showing me a new path,

A new direction,

A higher level,

And it wants me to.

It wants me to experience,

Experience the feeling of what we call true love,

Like the one on first sight,

As if guided by somebody up above.

The whole universe is no longer the same because our eyes met.

Our touch was felt,

Our lips caressed,

And the dance of our souls was led.

I know you're it,

And you know it too.

We know that what we have here is real,

It's true.

It feels impossible.

What are the chances of the two of us meeting right here?

I've always believed in faith,

But believing means doubting,

And so it was always paired with a sense of fear.

My body shivers as it touches yours,

As if it knows that what we have cannot yet be explored.

You're living your life,

I am living mine.

Being with you requires patience.

We both need time.

Missing the ones you love has never sat with me right.

The feeling came from lack,

From suffering and from fright,

But with you,

It's different.

Life is no longer the same.

Every moment I'm missing you is a moment well spent because I'm thinking of your name.

There is something about this,

And I know you feel it too.

We're meant to be together,

And we both know this is true.

We're expanding,

Surrendering once more,

And there is so much we will do.

You give a different meaning to the words,

I love you.
