Quest

 


Poster i stare at

'Who are you?'

Repeated inquiry

I search it out

Like always, I’m tired a mile after

Inside, a sea touching the shore

Not ever taking it with it

I wrap my arms around me

My mind could use double batteries

A quest that has no destination

The burden of truth of self

Not one, not two, I’m with all

When they turn blue

Everyone’s collecting clues

The courage, unintended,

Unearned magic

Examine it all

I’m blind less yet static

Sweet home

 


You build a home for me

There I'm never a guest

We both reside within

You treat me unlike rest

I weave your heart with love

Your companionship I preserve

You sow seeds in my heart

I tangle in you while we mark

I gather woods to keep us warm

I bake cookies with you in the night storms

You smile to me in snow

When you make my eyes glow

You shelter me in the nights

The days that follow the bright skies

I breathe around you honey

I’m right beside you, don’t you worry

My reflection gets unblurry

That’s how you do me honey

I look at you in awe

Our moments are countless stalls

You stroll with me through bright,

Through bad and dark sights

You hold my hands in yours

Our lips exchange our literal souls

You draw me close to you 

All my thumping goes for you

My heart is beating for your love

Do you hear it honey bum?
