I also promise to fail
I promise to lose focus, to be late
I promise there will be times
when I need to unplug from the world
I know it will happen
and none of it will lessen
all the care I have
and always want to have for you
I hope to have your hand close by
holding me the times I stumble
showing me you believe in us
that you
understandwe don’t always manage to express
something so immense
without it getting tangled
We need to be permeable
to each other’s needs and desires
so the light can gather
and expand us into ecstasy
It is in those highs and lows
of closeness and distance
when we fall apart and rebuild ourselves
aware of what truly matters
that I want to give you
the best of me
alive, and unafraid to lose
all for you
