#any lifetime

[remanence-of-love]

In any lifetime.

[gay-and-mid-poetry]

"I'd find you in any lifetime"

It almost seems so obvious. Like some simple fact, pointed out to illustrate what is seemingly irrefutable.

But at the same time I feel like I have to say it.

Part of that truth, chiseled into time, is that I want to tell you, over and over again. I want to shout it from the rooftops. I feel like I need to stop each passerby and shake them, asking:

"Do you know how I love them? How my soul is intertwined with theirs?

Do you know that I will find them, in any possible arrangement of this crazy mess we call life?"

I would cross galaxies, rivers of time, bend the fabric of reality in order to hold them.

I crave the day when our scents are no longer distinct

I long for the day when I clutch your shirt to my chest and I cannot find a trace of you there

I dream of being so close to you, so intertwined that we have become a fundamental part of each other presence

I yearn for the mundane with you

I dream of holding your hand through the grocery store. Nothing is out of the ordinary, and my heart is full

Images and fantasies play through my mind where you are simply a building, a room, a single door away.

In my fantasies, all I have to do is call out and you'll peer around the corner, asking what's the matter

I was made to be close to you

We were made to be connected long before either of us could comprehend

Seven hours away and it feels like an ocean

I am coming home to you

[gay-and-mid-poetry]

I didn't think I believed in multiple lifetimes

Didn't think there was more than a brief moment, a breath

But now I'm not so sure

I find myself daydreaming, thinking about how we knew each other before

Wildcats, hunting in forests together

Birds, flying miles and miles to find each other

A couple sea otters, fishing together

Some small critters far outside of any land tracked by people, content in our little nest

A small cat, nuzzled against your chest as you stroked my fur and rocked in front of the fireplace

Petting your furry head and looking into those loving puppy eyes as I told you how precious you were

I wonder how it felt to hold your hand hundreds of years ago on a continent across the globe

But I smile as I realize it felt just like it does now, like home

Like I found you, against all laws of probability

I think about how much it felt like I spent the early years of my life restless, searching, not realizing I was looking for you

So it may be silly

It may not be scientific

There's no logical explanation but you give me reason to believe

I will find you in our next life

I am yours and you are mine

I will find you in every lifetime

[gay-and-mid-poetry]

A thousand lifetimes

A thousand versions of us

Any place

Any time

Any language

Any planet

Any species

It leads me to them

It leads them to me

An unbreakable strand that keeps us tied

We'll find each other like it has to be

Something so true it cannot be undone

A game of universal tag

They found me, lost

So I will find them next

I look at the stars and begin to understand the statistical improbability that I'd find my way into their arms

But all of the magnitudes of space and time could not keep us apart

Whatever forces lay beyond that cosmic blanket dare not stand in our way

And when I look into their eyes it all makes sense
