It's Rather Beautiful

I spent a lot of time on love, 
obsessed with the idea of it. 
A wholesome expectation 
I didn't know how to attain. 

And when I discovered 
it was not out of reach 
I jumped into each pool 
not knowing how to swim. 

And each time, my body 
would float back to the surface 
as my mind floated in the clouds, 
but my heart would float suspended.

It was waiting for you to hold it, 
my hopeless dream come true. 
I spent my entire life hopeful 
that love would lead me to you.
