recognition

Part One

Part Two

***

too many whims

are lingering

to where the ocean

is more passing thoughts

than water

*

love has always been the truth

sitting between us

and yet i lied

first to myself

because it's easier to say that lie is the truth

when you believe it yourself

--platonic(ally)

how the adding and removing of a word

turns the world on its head

*

but the feeling will pass

as anything in life does

one day

a future of always and forever

won't be triggered

by looks and brushing hands

all i will see is

is the simple fact

we are soulmates close friends

*

i have the feeling

we are now forever changed

to the point where i now use words

to downplay what he means to me

and to lie to myself a little longer

not because this is wrong

but because of fear

of the wave

taking him

far

far

away
