You, Me & Us

We’ve always been night and day

I, the fire; you, the rain

Yet still, our heart beats to the same rhythm 

In the quiet, we break the chain 


We don’t always walk together

Yet somewhere, our paths align

We move towards a common goal

Always headed toward the same sign


Fourteen years, yet the fire burns

A gentle glow still shining bright

Words being our usual catalyst

Our conversations spark the night


Giving each other room to breathe  

Your space is yours, and mine is mine

In love there is no smothering  

Letting each other free, yet intertwined


You are my calm, you are my storm

I love 'you' and I love 'we'

Together we paint our own colors

The magic’s there, in what we see


We’re two, but still a single thread  

In differences, we’ve found our grace

Trust and respect being a priority

We always meet, in love’s embrace


I still feel butterflies when I look at you

Sweet nothings or a whispered word

Forever grateful for what we’ve created here

A bond that no one can disturb


Through it all, I thank the stars

For you, for us, for this whole life

We’ve written our story despite all odds

And here we stand, beyond the strife


The fire burns, the butterflies still rise

Grateful for the love we’ve made

We fell in love, we've stayed in love

We’ve built this, and it won’t fade

  4. I really love the mutual admiration you guys have for each other, from what I have read in your poems and your other posts. I love the part about loving "we" and about having your separate space but still finding joy in togetherness. It's beautiful. Stay blessed.

    1. It is important to not lose oneself when in love. Took me a while to realize this and I'm glad we both are in the same page when it comes to that.
