say it was in the stars,

something supernatural led me to you.

say it was the moon

pulling my tides closer to you.

 

it’s something deeper

than a mere connection.

it’s something in the waiting

& it grows with our knowing.

 

you can’t put your finger on it.

there’s something there.

some call it ‘love’

but it digs in so much further.

 

it’s in our details,

to the blissful silence

from a longing stare

deep into each other’s eyes.

 

it’s in the wanting

& never getting enough.

it’s in having someone who cares deeply;

nothing will ever change the feeling.

 

it’s in the way we don’t need to talk

but when we do 

it sends signals 

straight to our hearts.

 

it’s something we’ve never felt before.

a striking phenomenon.

how our thoughts run away with us.

for now, we’ll call it ‘love’ until we find a better word.
