Happy Valentine's Day!
In my past, I could not just be
Instead, I would pursue and perform
But now I’m with you
And being is all I need.
My life revolved around endurance
The silent survival of each second
But now I’m with you
And living is all I need.
My days melted together
An indistinguishable mass of memories
But now I’m with you
And experiencing is all I need.
My head, my heart, my soul
Formed a callous, tactical trio
But now I’m with you
And feeling is all I need.
My desires retreated to safety
terrified to entice, excite, energize
But now I’m with you
And loving is all I need.
