Stable

I seek stability
Searching and searching
Through every aspect of my life
 
I’ve built support systems
Systems miles wide
To ensure that I am stable
 
I never thought I’d find stability
In something so precarious
As love
 
But here you are
With freely-flowing words
And ever-present connection
 
You ebb and flow
I am the moon and you
You are my steady, solid tide
 
You rise to meet me
Fall when I need you to
I’ve never had that kind of love
 
I’m learning too
Learning to give you
The stability I crave
 
You deserve to be the moon
And I will be your tide
Just as you’ve taught me
