You can walk as far as the map will go.
You can swim all oceans, seas, and lakes.
You can drive every winding road,
Bike each cracked and uneven sidewalk.
But no matter where you go,
or how far you run
I will always
call your name.
You can walk as far as the map will go.
You can swim all oceans, seas, and lakes.
You can drive every winding road,
Bike each cracked and uneven sidewalk.
But no matter where you go,
or how far you run
I will always
call your name.
She says, I’m scared,
and I don’t lie,
I am too.
Scared in the quiet,
scared of how much
this matters.
Except for one moment:
when I’m beside her.
I almost said forever,
the way people do
when they want the moment to stop moving.
But I know I’m temporary
in ways you aren’t.
And loving you
has been the happiest
I’ve ever felt.
I keep checking
the places happiness once sat,
like a pocket
I’ve already turned inside out.
