it was the first time

in my life

I had chosen

not giving in

for convenience

or guilted to

but for what

my soul knew

was actual love

full

unconditional

of the heart

the mind

the spirit

not lust

infatuation

delusion

not settling

but a joining

two heartbeats

two kindred souls

here in the world

I'm still there

in the first time

in my life

as I sit here

under a dark sky

sprinkled with

sparkling stars

here is where

my thoughts

come out to

stargaze

with me.
