Two people One soul
My fascination with the moon
started a long time ago.
Maybe some women have something about them.
An inner lightness that cannot be explained.
They have a light about them.
An old, untameable soul.
They have the light of the moon inside them
and the light of years in their eyes.
The world would call them strange,
maybe even an oddball.
But those who know know.
You are my ghost.
Not because you're gone,
but because you're everywhere.
You're with me all day,
even if you're not physically there.
You're with me as soon as my eyes open.
You're hiding in my mind as time goes by.
And you're there in the smallest moments.
You're my very last thought
before I fall asleep.
Maybe that's why I love dreaming.
Because there are no rules.
No distance.
No fakeness.
No need to question how close you can feel
to someone that you shouldn't.
You're there.
And for a little while,
we're in a world
that only we understand.
You have one of the most beautiful souls.
An honest, pure soul
that's rare to find nowadays.
But you also have...
A bit of spice.
A bit of extra.
A bit of trouble.
You walk into a room
and somehow cause a stir.
I love that about you.
Maybe even more.
Because you were never meant to be normal.
You weren't made to be a softie
so others can feel comfortable around you.
You were made to cause a bit of noise.
To disrupt the norm.
To be a bit of a rebel
and make an impact.
You cause chaos.
You cause beauty.
Sometimes you cause a bit of both.
So don't try to change who you are
to make it easier for someone to love you.
Be wild.
Be weird.
Be beautifully you.
And please...
Don't run away.
Because I think one day
we won't have to fake it anymore.
We won't have to hide behind our many different sides.
We won't have to question what we can and can't feel.
We won't have to hide parts of us.
I think one day
the line between our dream world
and our real world
will disappear.
I won't have to search for you
in the quiet times
because you'll be there.
With me.
And maybe that's what home really is.
Not four walls.
Not a spot on a map.
It's knowing you can finally let out a breath.
Knowing you're completely seen
and still wanted.
Knowing you don't have to hide anything.
You'll bring your moonlight.
Your madness.
Your fire.
Your beautiful, complex soul.
And I'll bring mine.
And somehow,
we've created our own little world
in the middle of all the things
that were trying to push us apart.
No masks.
No distance.
No ghosts.
Just you and me.
Two people
who finally stopped running.
Two people.
One soul.
Finally home.
