God! don’t you
want the person who’ll watch you cry and not be scared?
Don’t you
want the one who’ll hold you when you need to be held, whether or not they’re prepared?
Don’t you
want the arms you’ll fit into so well it feels like your bodies were
pre-paired
ordained to fit into each other like gloves, like
snares?
Aren’t you looking for something to make the music in you
sing
(louder!)
the
one who never knows what happiness their smile could possibly bring, the
one who won’t think you’re crazy every time your feelings sting, and the
cold of the world’s embrace freezes your heart like a steel trap sling, the
one you don’t have to explain every thought in your eyes to, because
they can read it in your heartbeat and they can feel it too, the
only person whose reflection is a mirror and a portal
a passageway to peace for your soul, mind and body, through and through
is the person you are looking for
you?
