Dating a Friend
There was darkness and then there was you
Though to be sure the light never moved
A warm hearth at the end of a blizzard
A hole in my heart I’d patch over haphazard
Drove me to find you in my soul
Until I filled that gaping hole
With your infinite love and hope
You gave me just enough rope
To pull myself out of abyss
With your own version of selflessness
You waited until I’d gone to bed
And put a kiss inside my head
And never more were nightmares
A part of living within your air
You were the shape I needed
To finish my puzzle pieces
Now in your eyes I find
Such shame for once being so blind
Eyes opened once afloat
To find I needed a bigger boat
To fit all of you inside
To look at what was mine
And I turned to find you
And you were always there
To be perfectly honest
You gave me quite the scare
And I was unaware
Of how much you really cared
So full of adoration
I’ve finally found my station
To pick up and to move with you
Is the simplest thing I think I could do.
I love you dreamer
Let no heart be keener
To raise upon you such a fuss
We’re finally not we but us
