Floating Words

Poetry from the core of me.

Found

Please don’t go searching

For the flaws in me

The ones I brought to us

Before you improved me with your touch

What I need right now

Is to remind myself again

Of the cracks you fill

The broken bones you mend

All these things I take for granted

Because I no longer need to search

You constantly remind me

Of the love you give

The light you cast

That I bask in

As I cast shadows into us

While in that warmth

I still feel the flaws

That lurk behind improvements made

By the love I get from you

I’ve become used to living

In this restored state

That allows me to forget

About my coming short

For blissful days I spend

Wrapped up in the sum of us

Only seeing the final total

Not the difference between

I look at all of this

And marvel at the fact

I spent my whole life searching

But with you

I am found
