the 2nd poem

I need you like the air I breathe

Like the clothes I wear or the nutrients on which I feed

Your thoughts keep me awake for days but mostly nights

From the dark dusk to the morning that’s bright

Thinking about you gets me high

But no matter how hard I try

I can’t describe my feelings in words like this

Of how much my heart tends to miss

A moment close to you or a memory at least

That would’ve awoken my hidden beast

Acknowledge this love for I love no one but you

And deep in your heart you know that it’s true

Despite the distance and borders holding us apart

I promise you’ll be the only one in my heart
