M2

I look at you
and I long to tell you
how much I have come
to love you
but not
in a romantic way.
I simply am
in love
with the idea
of you and I
existing at the same point in time
and how,
by the grace of whatever gods that be,
I am fortunate enough
to know you.
The chances,
too astronomical to conceive
and yet,
here we are,
you and I.
Separated only
by the rotations of this planet,
yet united
by our positions
among the stars.
I can honestly say
that I am incredibly lucky
to be alive
with you
and though I will never say it
I love being in time and space
with you.
