Sometimes it feels like
There's a lot of pressure
Within.
Sometimes it's a slow burn
Where every sensation becomes
Exaggerated.
At times the pressure feels like
Almost too much to bear without
Release.
At times it can disperse at
A moment's notice without
Any signs of return.
But it will demand to
Be seen, to
Be felt.
And it will target only
The most sensitive spots.
Sometimes it's takes
Outside help,
A little cinema…
If you will.
And once it's done,
The world comes back to
Life.
I wanted to keep laying bricks.
You wanted to lay down.
We agree to disagree.
It feels like a long journey ahead.
I'm climbing an infinite staircase,
But now alone.
It takes two to tango.
I see your strength.
Thank you for binding with mine.
It's time to start anew.
Reincarnated we learn from the past.
I don't want to forget the beauty we forged.
I am not alone.
I understand but
I cannot grasp everything.
Some things will have to be picked up later.
The world preys on the vulnerable.
I should be on my guard until
I grasp the rest of it.
I have support.
My friends stand on-call for me.
Their time is wealth.
You made me better.
I appreciate the time we shared.
I hope meeting again is in the cards.
I'll miss having a familiar place,
A place I can bike to and from,
A place I can seek out.
I'll miss the splatter of toe beans,
The protesting mreows,
And the random cat pictures.
I'll miss sitting on the couch,
Working side by side,
Being busy, but together.
I'll miss going to sleep
With you by my side,
With your arms at my side.
I'll miss oversharing,
You acknowledging my nonsense,
You making me feel seen.
I'll miss knowing you.
