❝  would you choose me... ❞

i’ve heard it said that love is a thread
woven through destiny. to experience
an inescapable pull—a free fall
into sun-dappled bedsheets, 
intertwined caresses,
gossamer whispers.

i’ve heard it said that love is a tapestry
woven from memories. experiences of
a quiet comfort—a haven
of sun-soaked bedsheets, 
interlaced caresses, 
silken whispers. 

i’ve experienced that love:
sun-dappled bedsheets into sun-soaked,
intertwined caresses into interlaced,
gossamer whispers into silken.

what i would do to experience that love
with you again—to follow this string
into the next life, with you by my side.

if i did,
would you come with me?
