Once in a Lifetime

You and I are once in a lifetime. 

No one gets it, sometimes I don't even understand, but it makes sense-all of it. 

I am wild and you are so tamed. When I fly, I want to go as far away as possible and never come back. You soar, but you always manage to find a way back home, meanwhile I don't even know who or what home is. 

At times it is when I'm with you, at times it is when I'm by myself too; but my choice is you. For now and forever, I choose you. 

I want to love you until my bones become fragile and brittle; until we sit on front porches and reminisce about the first time we met and when we almost walked away from each other. But I couldn't, I just knew that there might be something more. And I hope there is, maybe you feel the same and that is why you are choosing to stay. Whatever it is, I'm glad you're still here. 

You're arms feel like a warm shelter when it rains. I hope you find a permanent home in me too.
