my darling antithesis

a poem of endearment

Selected with intention. Chosen with care.

You’re there in every flower I see.

Time doesn’t create a barrier,

It builds a fondness, a surety.

Chaos is imbued in my duality,

And Venusian energy flows in my veins.

Epiphany.

A moment of clarity. Reverie rooted in reality.

Dreams and musings.

Lilac hues remind me of you,

The shade of lucent sunsets,

Flowering wisteria branches.

We are contrary, complex beings.

In our natures, you possess what I lack.

Apricity and brumous. Opposites attract.

Let me be your sun in the winter. You are the fog that calms me.

There is a safety to your hands, a comfort.

The refuge in a stormy night. A lighthouse at sea.

I long for your company, I pine for your presence.

A moth to a flame. You enrapture me.

There is nothing fleeting in my words. I’m stubborn in my affections.

It’s vulnerability carved into the skins of ancient oak trees.

Dearest recherché inamorato.
