All this...for me?
And there it was
Left in 7 years of silence
The love I poured out of my very vessel
Found its way back
In a chamber, scared as I
Left in the echo of the unrequited
What was I waiting for?
It washed over me
Thank God for your silence
For the overlooking
The dismissal
Intuition or not, my solitary confines reminded me where the light was coming from
How could I not look at the one who dared to love?
Could I dismiss a mirror?
The one who chased a dream
One who chose warmth and vulnerability
How could I not fall for her?
I've fallen face forward into your nothing one too many times
There I was
All this for...
Me
Loved and lost
Relieved of a debt, free to remember me
In my fullness
Self-realized
I wish I could give this to you, the one reading
Freedom from a lost love
You heal
You find time
Your wounds become points of expansion
Our own flesh tells us so
Like a scar on a bended knee, it aches and ails us with its discomfort
Then the impassioned, red ooze becomes an unsightly goo
A sap that we see in some plants
It changes
It makes no apologies for its healing
Simply being
Allowing
All at once, you see it to be healed, elastic skin in place of a pain that disturbed you
May you find the peace your longing heart deserves
For me, I was left with nothing but a seven-year love careening back to me. All at once, there I was. And she is beautiful. If only you could see it now...
But you will, and it's truly yours
Your yearning outward was a symptom of the hand that seeks to guide you through...you.
All this...
For
Me?
Forever & always.
