Always

   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.
