Whom I love

There are times that they ask me

Why him?

And yes, he is not conventionally attractive

and he has the character of a storm

and he's complicated with invisible wounds

but

He keeps me awake when I'm tired

and my tongue always has words with him.

It's not what you're looking for

but it's what my life needs

the way he moves when he talks about what he loves

and the smile when he sees me

and I have no doubt that if everything were lost tomorrow and only him would only exist

I could survive with his mind and soul

I would be complete incomplete.
