Loki

A not so depressing and startling poem.

Beauty.

In the smallest things

I can hear your laughter over

the distance

time

and miles

eternities.

Time has brought us together and will

eventually

tear us apart.

I know that love is just a shout into the void

and we will all face eventual oblivion, but

I adore you best friend.

I have known you since the hardest part of my life

you saved mine

so many words to describe.

Some days I wake up and fear

that this will be the day

you push me out.

But never.

You're arms are always open

always there

ever present

calling me 

home.

You are my best friend

My Loki

Mine.

But you are also his

and that doesn't bother me

like I'd thought it would

I can hear the joy in your voice

He makes you happy

and I love him for it.

But I will also know if it hurts you.

My ears are attuned to your voice I will know

if they tremble.

My eyes are focused on your smile

I will know if it's flimsy.

I've never known someone

as caring as her.

I love how her lips stumble over words

Intoxicating extremities

I adore hearing her smile over the phone

If it were a record

I'd play it over and over on repeat

again and again.
