Extremities

A Poem by Scott Troy

Yes
Ill hold your hand
Open a door
Pull a chair out
All pageantry
Any man could pretend
Loan a jacket
Learn subtle cues
Gauge what a woman wants
Yet i...
We
Finish sentences
Awaft in the pleasure of your laughter
Your tender side
Your sarcasm
Your blunt honest truth
Its all endearing
An i love it
As well as your flaws
Difficult as we both are
Subtle an abrasive
Upfront an sticking to the point
I love you
In entirety
Better or worse we accept
The deep feelings holding us
To each other
We are both not fit
For sainthood
Confused
Tired
Bereft of lifes incumbent nature
Yet we push an twist
Emotional gymnastics
To an fro
I only ever loved you more
As we tumble
A past of round abouts
And begin agains
You feel the same as we
Endure
Grow closer
Best friends
Lovers
The same wick on a waxing candle
The road
Hard
Steep and bitter at times
Yet
Undeniably
Full of compassion
Love
Intricate and wanting
Not your common fair
Because all that is common is not fair
A passion
Lord
Such a pull
You and me create gravity
A pleasant singularity
We find ourselves pulled
Pressed toward
Each other
A gentle cosmic calamity
Magnetism
We attract each other
Im sorry
So very apologetic
That its been tough
Yet
Through it all we have
Been acute and submissive
Stubborn
An compassionate
We long for each other
Not for an absract
Not for some need we wish to fill
We love each other
Like twin doves
Circling an azure sky
We have never grown distant
We hover
Ever closer
A genuine love
I adore you
Your heart is mine
An mine yours
I pray
From my heart
With all my heart
There is a god
And that deity
Wont let us be apart
I love you
Remember
This is just the start
Forever seems long
Without you in my heart
