Chase

I used to chase people like a child chases the moon.
Then you came along, your subtle entrance made me go from chasing to floating on every cloud I saw.
The child who used to chase the moon became a woman.
Who now likes staying still in front of a love she waited so long for.
Love chased away my fears, tears, kept my walls at bay, and loved every flaw it saw.
I used to chase people like a child chases the moon.
Now, the only chasing being done is by you and your love.
Your patience has no end, and your gentleness is always there.
Your sincere love for me is such a gift.
I wish these mere words were more than words.
When you broke open all the cracks and breaks my heart had taken before you came along nurturing my heart back to its original state.
I knew you were the one both my heart and I were waiting for.
I used to chase people like a child chases the moon.
Now, if I ever want to chase down the moon again I only want to do so with you.
You taught me that true people don’t need to be chased after.
So, let’s chase the moon together.
Let’s chase the sun, and every star too.
Make a wish with every star and sunbeam that we see.
I want to chase every day down with you.
Turning every tomorrow into a today that is spent loving you.
