you and i

we talked at night

we met then, too

one in a million of finding you

you’d share your thoughts

simple things here and there

less simple more than not

i shared too

my dreams at night

I dreamt of holding you tight

things i loved

I loved the thought of loving you

i had never seen your face

but i knew your name

I knew how your hand would feel against mine

it was enough

but we needed, wanted, more

to talk, to see

To fall

we sent pictures

cute, simple

easy

we wanted more

to talk, to meet

I fell

so we met

i looked for you in the airport

i knew what features i was looking for

your hair, your hat

i didn’t have a sign, felt i didn’t need one

i had a coffee, you had been traveling long

you saw me first

waved

and I saw you and

I felt

Complete

I had never known I was empty without you

We had known each other for ages it felt, but

Looking at you

Seeing you

I didn’t know how to think

I could feel little else

It was all I had needed, had wanted

To hold you in my arms

So I did

And you held me

It was awkward, at first

To adjust your life for another

A push there, an adjustment here,

And

We text during the day

A lunch request

A reminder that you love me

(Here’s a reminder that I love you)

And it’s perfect

love poems
