lately i’ve been going around
asking people what love feels like
to them
it dawned on me the other day
while listening to a love song in the car
that my definition of love
is to feel a newfound desire to exist
to finally feel like
i wouldn’t want to die any minute now
to feel like i still have
so many beautiful moments to experience
to feel the weight of a lifetime ahead
getting lighter, smoother, easier
to know that there’s someone
who truly loves me
for simply being myself
and perhaps most importantly
to know that by my mere existence
i’m making someone’s heart feel
full of desires to carry on
existing, exploring and evolving
