Forever would be an understatement of my need for your time, affection, love, holding me close

when I find no where to turn. 

Inside my head, 

and in each breath you tell me to breathe, 

the calm you create in my soul and unearth 

the monsters hiding beneath my bed. 

I insist that you and I should, 

Ink Blue our teeth, 

without a second to consider what’s in 

everyone else’s head. 

It’s you and me in this road ahead. 

No one else can be my Baloo, so just know, 

we can bloom in the shining moonlight a’top the ruins of castles and shine our love poetry

where there once was only ceaseless dread.
