Journey for Two

I was who I was,        
With my blank canvas,        
I am who I am,        
Stubborn Zodiac ram,        
I will be who I will be,        
A long journey of self-discovery...        
        
A gypsy soul, a hippie heart,        
I try my best to be good and to be smart,        
A tiny wisp of a woman,        
For life, I try to have passion.        
       
I thought one day, I would find love,        
But as I grew older, I never saught out love,        
I was happy on my own, until I found you,        
You have completely changed my worldview.        
       
Up on cloud nine, I'm buying up all the real estate in outer space,        
I'm on the moon, watching you amaze,        
Waiting for the faery grotto that is your mind,        
Beautiful, gentle, fantastic, and magickal godkind,        
       
To tell me what you think of my letter,        
The one I gave you with all the courage I could muster,        
Dearheart, you make me wish to be my best yet,        
To you, I hope nothing I have done or said, upset.        
       
Sweetest, gentlest, lamb, my inspiration,        
Please give me a consideration,        
Please don't be disconserned that I am of a different generation,        
Please give us a chance.        
       
Please don't give us a passing glance,        
And before trying, give up the chance,        
For a beautiful romance,        
Only with you, I'll dance.        
       
Or at least let me down gently,        
Maybe at least, on terms, we can stay friendly,        
Though, I truly hope for more than that,        
With you, I would love to get to know, to chitchat.        
       
Please know, I have an open mind, and try to see other's viewpoints,        
Also, answers to life's questions, I try to pinpoint,        
Like everybody else, I am always on a journey of self discovery,        
Would you care to join me on this journey?        
       
Time and space confound me,        
As their fabric weaves through chaos theory,        
What is life, but a fragile physicality, that can be shattered and overcome by the slightest thought abnormality?        
The multiplicity of the universe, does not comply,        
       
With the singularity of a human,        
The duality of a relationship, with passion,        
The plurality of the mind,        
And of the soul, shall find        
The duality of the light and dark of mankind.        
       
I am at a breakpoint in my life's programing,        
Debugging my faults and obstacles, trying my best at wayfinding,        
With my broken compass, my smudged map, and the gods above,        
I never thought I would truly fall in love.        
       
This is no longer a journey for one,        
But a journey for two, I hope you'll have compassion,        
And help me end life's confusion,        
And bring to us both, a joyful conclusion.

Author's Note
08/18/2023: Changed "Dearheart, I wish to be your nymphet"
To
"Dearheart, you make me wish to be my best yet"
(I don't really like taking things out of my works, but the definition I had found for nymphet at the time was "(obsolete) A small nymph. [17th-19th c.]".
I meant, more like being a small, innocent-type woman, but now knowing the common usage of the word, felt uncomfortable keeping this line written this way. I have never thought of nymphs as being sexual, but rather thought it was authors/specific characters that did in certain situations/stories, and having always been wired to need to feel connection &love &trust, before even considering someone attractive in that way, I didn't realize a lot of other people aren't wired the same, and that most other people see nymphs like that.
All writing remains the property of the author. Don't use it for any purpose without their permission.
