Maybe we had love wrong
Maybe just a little.
It’s not the heart pounding
Butterflies in your stomach
Feeling that we had when we met
The anticipation of your lips on mine
For the first time
Maybe it’s not the hand holding
The dates and dances
Jumping in puddles in the rain
The feeling of you on me and me on you
Maybe it’s made up of these moments
Where we just exist together
The two of us
In the mist looking out on life
Separate yet whole
United against nothing, just comfortable
Happy to be ourselves.
Maybe we got love right in the long run.
It’s interesting how the same image can yield multiple interpretations. I love this angle too.
