lovers poetry

More than lovers, a lot like friends
The only choice given was to cleanse
Cleanse and clear from all that I didn’t deserve
Left with quiet moments only to observe
All I ever craved was to feel safe in your arms
A gift I was able to experience once
A moment of complete surrender held and kissed
Who would have known this story came with such a twist
Surrounded by hundreds of people, music played, and everything dissipated
Because in your arms, I found a safe space and felt elevated
Feeling safe is more than a treasure to a soul like mine
If only you knew my past was everything but kind
Selfish actions perhaps underestimated
Leaving me with no distractions like your own left me desolated
Unconditional love given without appreciation
Once again, I only wish to find motivation
Motivation to open myself up again and be vulnerable
Something I learned too late for you was uncomfortable
Looking to each day that comes to find strength and move forward
Let go and heal from what feels broken and disordered
