The Story of Us.

I am the wind that moves your soul. I am the piece that makes your puzzle whole. I am the water that satisfies your thirst. I am the one that loved you first. You are the effulgence that radiates my heart. You are the one that loved me from the start. You are the one that lights up my sky. You are the one that makes me want to try. I soar above the world on the wings of a bird. You capture me in your arms, as if it’s me you’ve always preferred. I see the world through new eyes. You have helped me overcome all that I have despised. I believe in our future, filled with riches and gold. You make me feel appreciated, as if I am the only one you will hold. I imagine us together, bound by unrequited love. You give me the strength, when push comes to shove. I am the one that inveigles your skin. I am the fire that burns deep within. I am the embers, the ashes that remain. I am the fiery essence that courses through your veins. You are the passion that emanates through my pores. You are the beauty that appears on my shore. You are the element that provides me with cheer. You are my Earth, my eternal sphere. I desire no one else but you alone. I yearn for your touch, the smell of your cologne. I have ended my journey at your majestic feet. I realize now that you make me complete. You have emblazoned your image deep within my bones. You are the reason that my spirit moans. You have captured me, made me your prey. You are my heart’s bountiful flowery bouquet. I am the pleasant notes in your most poignant jazz. I am the sole prisoner that has escaped from Alcatraz. I am free of the sorrow that once lived within my soul. And I am no longer afraid of growing old alone.
