cirrostratus

the mark you left in me

runs deep to the centre of my soul

sometimes when despairing of you

and seeing from both sides now

it twists under the skin, like you’re there

but when together, in our rightful place

it no longer cuts me

instead turning to a warm glow

and so try to use my eyes to tell you,

show you how you make me feel

while my feelings stand still

immoveable, like mountains, oceans

time flits past

til two years has slipped through my fingers

and defining us is still impossible

even now unable to wrap my head around

this confounded, twisted puzzle

this delightful, wonderful

thing that we share

how can the world looking in

come even close?

but whisperingly I question myself

do I actually love roaming our room

that contains no logic or labels

longing to lock the door

and lose myself there

yet still I desperately wait 

ready to turn the handle

sensing your presence behind me

which slowly soaks into my bones

so close I can hear your breath

caressing my neck

a step away from us being together
