Resilience
Miraculously, I still breathe
Even amid days of purging
I hear the whispers of
loneliness, bellowing
for supposed eternity
I’m still trying to survive
I need true companionship
through this perpetual dance
I would be the one to assist
even when the road is desolate
Within dreams, love is paramount
as I seek a window of companionship
I want to be a better man, one
who transcends bitter irony
Allow me to be charmed, blessed
by a god who sees my irises
I want to feel the type of kiss
that makes my skin jump
Sometimes all I have are moments
Wondering if my life will end unfulfilled
yet remain resurrected by love
Affirmative in my intentions
as my blue eyes tear up again
I want to feel it in my hips
I want to feel acceptance
as I dance in eternity
with truth and feeling
Allow me to fly faithfully
as gravity ceases to be
Let my heart be stronger
Defying genres, blurring lines
Let me be the dark horse
feeling the funk of felicity
Let self-love lead me to
a place where I take the shape
of light leading to perfection
I am a sucker for true romance
yet not blind to true artifice
Let me stay true to me
as I levitate in absolute bliss
Nothing remains the same
but eventually I will bloom
