The High Bidder

A poem describing my feelings for someone.

The High Bidder

You construct a cataclysmic auction of emotion in me
Winding and sliding deeper and deeper into my mind
Until my heart pulses to the point where I cannot see
A deeper intrusion into my soul would be impossible to find

I look into your eyes so full of life as we come together
They recreate that which I thought had been lost in me
I see in them a glimpse of what could be forever
So chaotically beautiful it feels like it should always be

So here I stand motivated by your endless charisma
Compelling me to fly to the sun and back again
Pushing me to build something brighter than a nova
With the light we have created there’s no way we can’t win

I defeat my addictions to build a better future
Nothing can denounce me from this task
Anything but pure beauty is left to botcher
You and I were meant to last

I’m here for you always
As I know you are for me
