“I’m happy I met you”
I say as the broken glass
that replaced my heart
beats in my chest
so effortlessly
& I am happy I met you
you and your promises of forever
you and your blue eyes
you and your beautiful body
even more beautiful soul
& I can’t help but think
if I killed myself that day
& all those other days before then
that I would have never met you
I would have never discovered you
& its a wild thought
in my wild mind
I don’t care if you really mean forever
I won’t hold you to it
love is a fickle thing
death can touch us at any moment
but just know
as I write this with shaking hands
one day of knowing you
one night in your arms
& one wink from across the diner booth
felt like forever & a day to me
