Well this is beautiful...

What if all we ever wanted
isn't hiding in some
secret far away dream
but inside of us now
as we breathe one another
and find home in the way
our arms always seem to fit
perfectly around the spaces
between us?
What if we are the answer
and love was the question?
What if all this time
it was us you were supposed
to find?
I am filled with wonderings
questions and doubt
but of one thing I am certain:
it will always be you
that gives flight to the
butterflies inside me,
calm to the sea I have become
and hope to the darkness
all around us.
It is you and it has always
been you ...
you.
You that soothes and excites
and spreads joy like rainfall
on the already damp earth;
You that pulled me from the longest
sleep and kissed my tired eyelids
awake.
If life is a question mark,
then you my love,
are the proud and bold period
that is typed with certainty.

-Tyler Knott Gregson-

Yes, indeed. :)

It is and we are....people have made fortunes over helping others come to a conclusion or a solution, when the answer was inside of them all along.....very nice write

Yet he actually says the answer is within reach, not necessarily within "us."

I think this poem is more a commitment to devotion of his life partner. A wise and mature type of devotion that does not wane when the fervor has passed.

Ah, he is one of my favorite poets!

Mind if I share another poem from him that I find beautiful? I found it printed out in one of my folders for a class a few semesters ago.

Typewriter Series #743:

"I raised this silence
from an infant thing.
It was all I had
and I taught it to be ok
with the way it was born.
It grew
in ways I didn't predict
and soon enough
it held me, how I once
held it.
Silence,
I would whisper,
one day you will grow too big,
one day you will go.
Goodnight silence,
I would mumble out
through unused lips;
I got used to never hearing
an answer.
I raised this silence
from an infant thing.
Know this, and make it a mirror
of your worth,
for I would only abandon it
for you."

Love it!!! I search his name on pinterest all the time.
