Big questions
Are you scared?
Such a simple question
With such a complex answer
I have never felt calmer
I have never felt more afraid
Loving you is the easiest thing in the world
Your body moulds into mine like a forgotten part
You have been found and we are restored
Able to function like we were created to
But as I reach for you
I am held
Suspended mid-air
A puppet on a string
Each insecurity a joint in the puppeteers hand
What if he leaves?
He doesn’t really love you
There’s someone else
The longer you stay
the more it’s going to hurt when you go
You can’t handle that pain
Every step you take forward
Is another step closer to the end of this
Too broken to fix
Too broken to love
Don’t worry my dear
With you I hear symphonies
These thoughts are just a whisper in the background
We are taking steps forward
We
How strange is that
Suddenly being part of something bigger
Something so beautiful and so fragile
We are creating an ecosystem
And betting that it is able to sustain life
I’ve never been much good at gambling
What if we’ve bet wrong
And we’re stumbling towards a house of bone
All we’re cultivating is corpses
We let the skeletons out the closet
And now they sleep in our beds
And so yes I am scared
But I am also more scared of missing this
Better to be broken by experience than by a what if
Let’s make this house a home
Two become one
We shall wake each day to the same sun
Let’s hope it shines for us
