The words unspoken

All the words unspoken,

All the “could have beens”

Were just a form of make-believe.

If only I could see,

What really was, in front of me.

I felt it, I knew it,

I just couldn’t find the words.

Like a flame that was extinguished,

A hope that was found and lost.

You were the sun to my moon,

That stopped shining,

Forever eclipsed.

What’s life without love? True love. Is it so hard to find? Or am I just blind?

I don’t want to settle for anyone whose not my soulmate and my heart home. Where it feels like for lifetimes we’ve known each other, and yet, when it magically arrives I get lost. Lost in my thoughts and worries, like a road that I know is there and yet can’t seem to figure out how to turn on the light.
