When I found you

Thoughts loom in
Ominous darkness
Not quite lonely, just
Unhappy, thriving for love.

Upset, choises
Not wise
Selfish, immature
Not thought out.

I had decided
But my heart
Undeniably large, pained with
Forbidden love

Was broken
Two sorrowful halves
Aching for him
Wishing for a fairytale that I presumed
Would never come.

Why so optimistic?
Why so sure?
How could I think that love was
So very pure?

Well, truth be told
I missed him.
Emotions tinged with
Grim, uneasy solemnity.

Wasn't exactly greedy;
More longing for passion without solitude;
Someone to think about at night
Smile when you see them again.

So I was lucky,
That fateful day
Perhaps destiny?
Was it possible that I was once again in love?

So much in common
So little we knew
It was meant to be
And I speak of the truth.

When you spoke the words
That I wished for from the
Time I met you
My answer is obvious, the ending of a story I have just told.

Yes, I love you.
Yes, I need you
All the time
Longing for you when you're not there.

Even if you're not mine
For as long as I hoped
I will always remember
How you healed my heart
Assisted me when I just couldn't cope.

I love you now
It's easy to see
You sealed the gap
In my grieving heart
That now soars like a bird set free.

I'll never know
Why I loved that one boy
Who now seems petty to me...

I believe that is how you came into my life.
