A poem for you

A poem for you

If there were a way
A path we follow
me and you

This desire
that burns like fire
but melts like love

If there could be a song
that would bring us along
together

This passion
that explodes me
scrambles my sense
renders me unable
to tell up from down
yes from no
home from hope

If I could live
what my body purposes
when pointed towards you

Some motors go deeper
than the levers
that reach them

If I could be fair
while holding you near
forever

This longing
that feels like
my only interest

If we could unfold
what I scrape
when your presence
unfolds
me

If it could be
love
family
friendship
home
I would take it, arc through it and expand into it, be this with you
