Enough for us
In this bare, confined room,
where walls quench ethereal thirst,
severing morbid spaces,
filling up holes of memories
that we left untouched.
Encapsulated, cornering
languished hearts that do not know
how to admit that this peace,
even collected and compressed
to form tougher walls,
can be fizzled down in microseconds
with just a single sorry.
We have reclaimed ourselves
from years of healing cruel scars,
but we also have this flicker of feelings,
flashed instantly, pulling, snatching us
towards the untainted love we could have saved
if we had just shut our doors behind.
Letting people wonder that inside this room
isn't just sounds of our arguments
and broken mirrors,
but a pool of galaxy and light
and memories we wrecked and built
without anyone's knowledge.
In silence, out of the world's judgement,
we peacefully
and intentionally create extremely selfish love,
a love that is only enough for both of us.
Original poem I wrote when I was in the midst of fighting my own emotions,
however I was shamefully defeated
