Disarm me with humor

And intelligence

Interests that align

So seamlessly with my own

Endless conversation

That makes me believe you are

Just as excited as I am to be there

With you

With you

That was how you made me feel

Revealing yourself to me

Mentally and physically

Telling me that, here in this place,

I knew you best

An intimacy that I carried with me

In my heart

In my heart

That was where you were

As you shared your day with me

The big moments and the minutiae

Carrying me in your pocket

I felt like you didn’t want to let me go

That I was a part of your life

Yours

Yours

That was what I wanted to be

And you Mine

In whatever crazy way we could make that work

So many miles between us

But as we typed our days and thoughts

Something changed and I was no longer welcome

You needed to stop

You needed to stop

You said, and I didn’t understand

But simply replied

Okay

I wanted you to want to stay

With me

In my life – In my heart

But you wanted to go

And drifted away
