My comforter

Are you okay with being my foundation when what I want more than anything is to fly away?  

I want to explore and experience and see new things

The strength of my emotions and my desires frighten me

And your arms comfort and soothe me

Are you okay with being my comforter?

My emotions with you are different, but still strong

They are not extreme in the way you experience a rollercoaster, with highs and lows and intensities

But my feelings for you are still powerful

Are you okay with being this constant presence in my life, when I know sometimes I will want those extreme experiences that I do not believe I can find with you

I can find those experiences elsewhere in life, but I feel in a sense that this is a betrayal of you and what we have, for me to have such incredible experiences away from you

because in the end, even though I try not to, each time I have these experiences, it makes me value comfort less and always seek the extreme

but I still want you as my foundation, as the thing that holds me to reality and comforts me

are you okay with being my foundation?
