Love as Paradox, Mystery, & Understanding

It escapes me the pendulum of this fever; at times a sense of oneness, colored by a tinge of reality, to know you through my idiosyncrasies; and hold you this light, through sheer proximity, to thirst this inner rapture—and wherever is you, crawling through sight-waves, seeping into inward valleys; and wherever it’s you, tugging at tentacles, infusing a sudden moment; and I dig—but dearly not deep enough, to pull at a walking monsoon; to see our glory, where the story is partial, and no one gains entrance; and these are insecurities, to take you from the world, if only to secure our union; where this is falsity, for to live in caves—is to perish in dungeons; thus you would hate me, an insecure man, feigning as the king of the legends; and live our dreams, as giants to this world, where rapture is security—despite the flirtations. Is it scruples, to hold acidic tears, where I perish to entertain; and must I take the stage, even in sleeping hours, to hold your love; and was I clever, to utter this paradox, and learn for trust a partial stranger? It feels uneven, where the days are mellow, and you stand a statuesque queen; and it feels uneven, to witness so many shades, pushing towards power; and it feels uneven, a pair of serpents praising this union; but this is me—a world of thoughts, losing to gain eternity; and this is me, too fraught to believe, that someone so wonderful loves this soul; and this is me, pushing to nestle dreams—the reach of a moment in passing. We delight in banter, for something so simple—to raise distrust; and we delight is joy, where it rarely pulls—at the mystic core; for pains reign, as something ironic, to knit a fortress; and more the bias, for joy is also—a maze for connections; but this is life, the media of dreams, flooding our subconscious; to strangle inhibition, where we yearn forgiveness, as if to say, Hold me despite your flaws; and more to see, an inner feature, screaming for mercy.
