And in that moment
That very first moment
Upon rising from sleep
I am suddenly aware
That it is true
You are really here
Whether near or far
Whether outside or in
You are there prompting
Me to be better
Then than ever before
Category: Friendship
BeHaveDo
Doing having and being
Are very different things
Doing love for instance
Is natural like birth
It’s an eruption having
Love is a feeling
It’s invisible usually divisible
But being love is
Lonely and of one
What I said first
Is actually really backwards
It’s being having doing
Label
Things often exist long
Before someone calls them
Anything these things go
About doing but only
Be when someone say
Hey look at that
Calling something a name
Never makes it so
It makes it recognizable
Should it happen again
Before that it’s still
Confession
After almost a year
Of back and forth
Of steeplechase and jockeying
We finally did meet
And drank from each
Others cup feeling warmth
I had even before
You took your time
We laugh about it
I’m your very first
You’re not my last
But where we are
Is a comfortable place
I often wonder why
It is always hardest
To tell the truth
When two hearts are
NotYouYeahYou
It wasn’t like I
Thought that it’d be
Much less than fanfare
More like gaining weight
Rather than it thundering
It just quietly called
A hey you there
Not you yeah you
Want to be mine
And finally finally after
The fear of not
Of maybe never forever
You picked me to
Be on your team
