My Constellation Man.

Simply put; you are the best example of what my constellations represent.

Once upon a time...you were all I ever wanted

If I told you I never wanted to hurt you,

Would you believe me?

The look in your eye when I walk into a room?

Gone.

When I told you I was crazy,

And you said, ‘I'm crazier...’

I said I'd been hurt many times before.

You opened your arms and embraced me in a hug,

Claiming: "oh, that sweet misery...she loves company."

My soul sparked unlike anything I've ever felt before

That moment when you compare your relationship to a song-

Let it set the foundation for your future...

Music,

It’s the answer.

I never realized how asleep my soul was my entire life-

Zapped awake by your warm touch…

I knew the meaning of life & death,

Love and pain-

With their relations to one another.

For the first time ever;

I grounded myself into the earth and felt everything

You unintentionally forced me to find myself,

To be real and true with me.

It's as if I woke up for the first time,

From a 30 year slumber.

Nothing was what it had seemed to be.

Your intense blue eyes...

Had a direct line to my heart,

Even though my brain was screaming; "RUN!!!"

Some would call you my obsession.

Once, maybe.

But, now?

You are my soulmate.

My life partner.

As each day goes by...

I'm a little wiser and a tad more mature.

I understand so many things now.

It isn't neccessary for two people to be sewn together every second of our lives,

Just to prove love and intent.

I beg you to see the good you've brought in my life.

Stop highlighting the adverse affects that we created together

To say your name with any negativity attached to it

is doing you an astronomical disservice.

You brought me to life.

I finally felt the air as it entered my lungs,

fishing those cool mornings.

A crisp yet calming fulfillment.

Open mindedness is second nature now,

I approach life with a care-free intention...

the same one you taught me how to nurture-

Because, life is too short.

Your soul still motivates me,

Your heart still electrifies me and

Those eyes still turn my knees to putty.

You're the best example of what my constellations represent.

And every reason to keep pushing forward.

Stars and astrology be damned-

I will always stand for you and your quality of life.

No repeats on our past,

Brighter futures deserve us.

Hold my hand always,

and ill always land on my feet.
