#await

…getting better at this, for better or for worse

M Y G O D .

But like the moon, you shine brightest in the darkness.

As I reach to you, I sense your love

And your hesitation.

As our hearts seek one another, they ache in desperation.

Your world, like a bird gliding, slowly descending into chaos.

My love for you is ever sure, like a magnet, it draws you to itself.

Your shell is many-layered, your beauty like a pearl.

I've broken through your walls, but your heart remains hidden.

So I wait,

As the wolves who long to howl at their moon, I wait.

As the ocean with her waves,

For my tides to rise with your pull, I wait.

For I know my love is true,

As an anchor, my love is sure.

As a lighthouse on a stormy night,

I wait for you.
