    Inevitable

    You entered my life

    As one enters a church

    Quietly;

    Respectfully;

     

    So inadvertently was your presence

    I didn’t notice your drawing closer

    As one does in an act of contrition

    Gently;

    Bashfully;

     

    So inevitable was your presence

    I didn’t question it

    Didn’t mind your simple smile

    Or the depth of your eyes

    I found solace in your kindness

    And felt compelled to explain my reasoning

    As one does in confession

     

    I didn’t hesitate with your doubts

    And didn’t argue your reasons to pull away

    I simply accepted you

    Inevitably I longed

    Inevitably you left

    Quietly;

    Respectfully;

     

    I shouted your name

    But words failed me

    Inevitably I panicked

    And grasped for air

    But then realized

    Inevitably you would return

    Inevitably
