past a thousand souls and judgmental stares
I was falling freely towards the end
of a bottomless chasm
as if enacting willfulness and
pseudo intelligence could ever make me
a complete and fully-fledged being
but then…
our eyes met and the entire world shattered
into a million pieces, when you delicately
split my reality, I was consumed and carried away
my every thought about you
was tangible, my love for you was
tangible, when I closed my eyes –
I saw you, when I inhaled, I sensed you
wait…
past a thousand souls and judgmental stares
I craved to be embraced, resting in your arms,
drowning in the abyss of your eyes
enlightened and a million times stronger
I owe it to you and your love
next time we left alone
I’ll take your hand lovingly
whisper to your ear “come”
you’ll take a step forward
our breathing will be heavy
I’ll whisper again:
I’m yours, we’re one
