10 years of us
ended tonight
Softly, quietly
And all at once
Like a snowflake landing on forest moss
Or a feather languorously touching down
The last vestiges of us trickling
Draining into the period of our life sentence.
We were gentle as us
With each other
We were shelter in storms
A warm embrace in an unforgiving winter.
We built out chambers
In one another’s heart spaces
Places to rest and restore
Where wounds could heal
And souls could mend.
We were beautiful together
And shaped each other
Into better versions of ourselves.
We are beautiful apart now too.
Our puzzle was almost complete
But we never could find
All of the pieces
We couldn’t complete the masterpiece
As this iteration of us.
It was close though, wasn’t it?
We were close.
The love ever lasts
Even as the journey changes
Even as branching paths are taken
As the story unfolds with “I”’s
Instead of “we”’s
You will always have your chamber
And I am eternally grateful
For 10 years of us.

To become immersed in such rich,vivid stories where we are taken to new lands on extravagant adventures with imperfect and heroic friends is a particularly potent kind of magic. I am here for it always!
