before you,
eternally empty space at my side,
one i never thought to fill.
i guess i never noticed,
because i always had someone there.
but i should have known,
it was a place meant for you,
and no one else quite fit.
it was always just wrong.
they would move too fast or too slow,
leaving me behind, or never keeping pace.
either way, i was forced to move on alone.
some were too big,
over shadowing me and taking control.
most were too small,
leaving me empty,
just a hollowed out girl.
with you,
unlike any other,
every piece of you perfectly fit to me.
you fill every space in my heart,
touching the gaps that no other could reach.
more and more of you
keeps pouring into me.
and still,
not a drop of you runs over.
i have room for it all.
because just as my hand is fit to yours,
my heart was made for you too.
