𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬

at the start
you were just a thought.
a moment of unexpectedness
in my mind.
now you are constant,
like a heartbeat,
remaining in my head.
you are the first thing
when i wake up
and the last thing
when i go to bed.
yet you do not stop
even for sleep.
you remain in my dreams
floating delicately about
making me smile.
and even still,
you remain as you began:
a thought.
