I can’t sleep
until I’ve come here
and knocked on this door
to try and wake you
into existence.
We haven’t met,
yet I can describe you
in exacting detail.
My lover is already in me,
I am not seeking you,
but merely waiting
on a chance meeting
in order to be in awe
and inspired by you.
I listen for your voice,
so I’ll know you
by the words
and phrases you use
already alive in me.
I am in love you
and have been,
it’s been years of this,
our two voices mixed,
so that when we shed
our old skins
we will change
and truly be one.
For now though,
I am content in knowing
you’re alive and well in me,
so when we do meet,
you’ll begin to see for yourself
I have been alive and well in you,
and this is the reason
for all the words.
My words,
might never be seen,
yet they’re here already
thriving in all of us,
because there are truths
between lovers
that already exist.
Nature’s laws surround
all of us, in fact,
we just need
to teach ourselves
how to listen, how to
react to them.
