 | I remember the late afternoon, where you held me so close to you I could hear the soft beat of your heart... So relaxed. Comfortable in each other’s company.
You knew the light in your room was far too bright
for me to hide my insecurities by
So by the dim candlelight we stayed
It was a sweet compromise - and one of those memories that seem insignificant to others.
But it’s the little things that count.
I remember seeing a metal heart stencil on your bedside table,
Thinking how beautiful… It looked just laying there, with its shadow creating a larger one onto the wall. Out of my reach. Like the days spent thinking you were. That, you would cease to know I exist. How wrong I was.
You then took it and pressed it into the side of the candle
Scaring the heart shape into the wax, next it was my turn
After a few mistakes I managed to make the shape perfect,
... Aligned with yours.
However the mistakes were inevitable.
I am a clumsy, confused person most of the time.
How Ironic I find this simple act, so complex
... Finding links to the way I found you
Mistakes made along the way, until beside you I finally get it right.
I made it right, two heart shapes scared into the candle.
Side by side…
