My Poem “The Whole Truth”

I have looked into someone's eyes
and I have told them that I loved them -
and, every time I have,
it has felt like an infinite moment of time...
I have listened to someone speak
and I have been so entranced by their voice,
in what I can only describe
as a perfect moment,
that they have made me feel
happier than when I was a child...
I have had experiences
that felt like dreams,
because when I was living
certain moments with certain people
I felt as if I could happily repeat
those same moments
over and over again -
because in those moments
I felt comfortable exposing a part of myself
that I do not normally put on show;
however, like most people,
I always leave clues...
I have wondered,
as I have wandered,
why do things happen
when, where, and why they do?
However, I have come to realize
that life has its own plan and story to tell
that only makes sense
if and when you are lucky enough
to get to know the whole truth.
