You ~

One of these days I shall meet you.

You, who will make my heart whole and cause it to soar upon strong wings and a brisk wind.

You, who will meet my intelligence and challenge it with brilliance and encouragement for the bettering of my open mind.

You, who will pull a smile from reluctant lips and place, upon my willing flesh, the pinkest of promises that shall stain warm cheeks and wrap around me like a blanket.

You, who will hold me, tenderly but with conviction, allowing my entire being to give in, feeling secure in your embrace, never doubting, for a moment, the sincerity of that which you have given.

You, who will hold all of my secrets close, in the treasure chest of your, mysterious, heart, trusting me to hold the key to all that keeps you.

You, who will kiss me, so deeply, make love to me, so intensely, regard me, so adoringly, keep me, so protectively that life itself shall end but we remain, always and forever.

You, who will understand the madness within me and dare to play within the fire I possess, for you fear not, getting burned, yet you dare to touch that, which is a part of me, still unknown and terrifying, but you go willingly, and without regret.

You, who will stand by my side, hands clasped, with mine, into my murky, forbidden, depths and be not afraid of what you will find there.

You, who will find entrance into my very soul, making a home, sharing existences, experiences, darkness and the light, losing the way out and feeling all the more confident for it.

You, who will remain, when all others have abandoned this mighty and ferocious ship of nightmares and rage. Clasping the Captain’s wheel, not in lieu of, but rather, with me, we shall sail through the depths of the life and, together, we dare to take on the challenges of life and all it’s chaos.
