Ours

Even though I feel that I do not belong,
I feel that the world becomes easier.

Because I give myself to you,
When I belong with you it becomes easier.
I’m less afraid of myself 
Because I have nothing to fear in my dissatisfaction,
Your love drives me into belonging.
Into meaning deeper than myself,
My own belong is based on me
And better yet
Now it’s based on something more
Something that is timeless
Your love for me gives me more meaning.
I don’t belong, 
But I belong to you,
To you, yours and ours.
Thinking only of myself has no history,
It is only thought,
But we who becomes a they is now
A story,
One I intend many to read,
this ours I've learned to belong with.

    I must answer call from call, 

    And write you when you feel small,

    And whispered to the moon,

    About the days that haunted her,

    And those that would come soon.

    She wanted to apologize,

    For wishing on the stars,
