It’s difficult
to pin point
the very moment
i’d say
i really fell
in love with you,
no specific moment
comes to mind,
nor lightning or
epiphany, no fall,
just a true, deep
remembering, or clarity,
i suppose is the
best way to describe
such an unreal reckoning
from my very depths.

Lets talk
the sunset
the summer
the confessions
my discomforts
sweet love
big conversations.
#397
Sometimes i think about
the topics, and yarns,
from brilliant brains of
fascinating people left to meet,
the gentle push of intellectual,
and imaginative boundaries,
the teasing, the learning, the jests,
the word play, the difficult decisions
between stories and opinions
shared from legends themselves,
i think of toying with jesters,
philosophizing, arguing, pausing
while my mind erupts, shatters
and is re-parcelled, reorganized,
and yet, of all the plausible
conversations, in a bevy of
glorious choices, i keep circling
back to you,
in our silent puzzle,
in our quiet knot,
making bad jokes of ourselves
and each other, cushioning with
romantic, heartfelt whispers,
those are the conversations
where i wish night had no hours
and the hours had no minutes
and our lives had no end.

All our heroes must die.
Its an abundant stone,
a fact that freezes, and
glues the mind, there’s
no out dancing time’s
slow steps to this dramatic
painful act. Sorrows they
rise as those honourable
fall, their crowned heads
thunder against soft coffin
pillows, sounding loud
a new rousing call.

i’ll always say i love you
in the moments we depart
one fast shouting, screaming reminder
as we set off to embark,
oh i hope to share it before
in the many moments prior
regardless, its irrelevant
i’ll shout it like a choir
i love you i love you i love you
is what i want you to remember
it’s what i’ve been trying to say
through every bad joke, and deep opinion
the teasing, casual inquiry, and social niceties
the thanks you’s, fuck you’s, and bless you’s
in every fight, argument, or misunderstanding
i love you i love you i love you
are the words i’m trying to say
they’re the words that need to stay
as you wander, never wonder
where my heart was or is
when we were almost strangers
and we said it almost awkwardly
it’s still there, it still beats,
it still grows, it’s all meaning
i love you i love you i love you
sometimes
we make
happy
mistakes
and
fuck up
simple things
in
simple ways
oh
well,
there’s
beauty
in it all
don’t you know
don’t
you
know
don’t you
know?
and if we never see each other
from the moment we step apart
you’ll never have that doubt
i’ve loved you from the start,
sometimes it may get boring
as the days shift on and on
sometimes the words might
seem redundant or casual
but they’re not- so just incase
i love you i love you i love you,
i’ll see you in an hour
