To Want For Comfort And Solace. For Peace Of Mind And Peace Of Heart --

To want for comfort and solace. For peace of mind and peace of heart --

Connection, understanding, and any form of love.

But I had long since accepted that the yearning that defined my heart

would go unfulfilled --

That I might yearn, until my end, for things that could never be --

And then parted the clouds and shined the moon, and,

It became clear that my acceptance did not make my solemn solitude a fact of life -- That even a girl like me is not beyond true sight, and true kindness --

I no longer yearn for what is not --

I simply yearn for you.

"Even if I cannot touch the light of the moon." V. Rue, 2025.
