i win

lunarchloedip

we met on a dating app

which is slightly embarrassing

anyone that asks

receives a diluted explanation

of how i was so desperate for love

i threw up pictures of my face

and prayed it would be enough

for someone to stay

i didn’t actually expect

anyone to stay

only had the app for two days

so when he came

i was amazed

i’ve never felt so safe

 

i must have known you before

held your hand in heaven

dreamed of every earthly mistake

i’d make

that would indirectly lead me to you

i must have felt content

in the knowledge of upcoming rage

softened by the kindness on your face

i imagine it was hard

to walk through the veil

and leave God behind

but he has blessed me with a life

in which you

are by my side

a love i’ve always been meant to find

i thought i had it before you

but i was blind

thank you for opening my mind

 

i dream of the day

we re-enter heaven together

heavenly hands held forever

no rage to be found

no hateful sound

just light

 

i dream of the day

i don’t need to fight

your beautiful face

is such a pretty sight

 

love is no competition

but i think i’ve won

i win owen

he gets the creativity flowing

how long my mind

has been screaming to know him

 

i think this is love

i think

 

this is all i have dreamed of.
