No lover will
Ever
Love you
As much as I do.
Outlandish,
I know.
But true.
Because this isn’t even optional
Love
It just is.
Otherworldly shit.
I don’t get to choose not to
Love you
Like this.
Soaked into my skin, my pores, my cells.
I have tried every possible
Way
To get you out.
But now I realise
It’s just not up to me.
I finally understand
That even when you run,
I still feel you.
Maybe you’re even trying to
Run from it...
But it’s inside you too.
So whatever step I take
And whatever step you take
Is completely
Irrelevant.
It’s not an exaggeration that
We
Were
Written in the stars.
We don’t even need to
Read the words
From here.
Just look up
And there they are
Timeless
Unfaltering
Clear
And oh, so there.
And my,
How bright they shine.
