War of Hearts

We were tumultuous
From the start.
With an ending
Written like a
Shakespearean tragedy.

The tears that fell
And the sleepless nights
That ensued,
Shattered me into
A million pieces.
I disintegrated into
Moondust.

The pain of losing you
And the emptiness
Of being alone,
Felt like dying
Without you.

Yet, through those
Moments I found
What I had truly lost.
I lost a deeper part of
My psyche that
Wasn’t there before.
The part that hid my
Trauma.
The part that I left
In the fog,
Drowning in the ocean of
Regret and gloom.

You opened my wounds
And bled out
The storm that never ceased.
You cut the cancer from my
Broken heart
And
Cured my shame.
And it was dangerous
And beautiful.

And though I hated you then
For it,
I can’t help but
Love you still,
As I fight my demons
And battle my fear.

No matter what happens
No matter the distance
I will always look for you
In the spaces left behind.
I will always seek out
Your face in the shadows
And listen for your
Song in the dark.

I will always find you,
In every dimension
In every timeline
On account of our blood and souls
Being designed for
One another.
Crafted in the Galaxy
Before the world was made.

Because this,
My love,
Is a war of hearts
And I can’t do it alone.
I need you by my side.
