Eternal by ~LadyLilith-Mirae:iconLadyLilith-Mirae:

Categories Literature > Poetry > Spiritual > Open


I used to wonder about balloons, and where they went when they floated up into the sky.
Do you remember when you told me they carried souls to God?
(Back when I believed in God. Back when I believed in gravity.)

You were the first to wrap my tongue around the idea of forever,
In the form of bruised strawberries that burst in our mouths
You used to wash my hands and say, “Honeybunch, eternity means you and I.”

I used to wonder where you went when you locked yourself in your room. You thought I couldn’t hear you cry through the walls.
Did you know that I waited for hours for you to come out and fake a smile?
Now that -
        that is eternity.

This is amazing. I could read it over and over. Great language, great images, great snippets of a life and a relationship. I absolutely adored it.
