From the moment we met, we could feel the pull.

An uncontrollable magnet, bound to make our hearts full.

Within minutes we were kissing,

having never known what our hearts were missing.

We get lost in one another’s eyes.

As if it were our souls’ way of saying hello and goodbye.

We fell so quickly, so intensely.

Never taking a moment to catch our breath.

The more I saw you, the more I saw my reflection.

Every mistake, every trauma, every imperfection.

I became nervous and afraid,

with no one but myself to blame.

Facing your demons is never easy,

but together we could find their deeper meanings.

Embark on a journey of self discovery.

Know there’s always a safehaven in our friendship when things get tough.

I aspire to be better, as do you.

I aspire to be loved, as do you.

I aspire to be healed, as do you.

We don’t need to be together to admit that’s the truth.

As we watch each other leave, we promise to support.

I’ll gladly stand in your corner, never ever forced.

For what it’s worth, I wish you well on your path.

You’ll always have a home with me; no strings attached.
