When first we meet

For some special people in my life :)

When first we meet belongs to the following groups:

All Out Emotion, All Things Poetic, Artistic, Philosophical, Core [C.O.R.E], Creative, Talented, and Unknown, Everyday Life, Freedom to Shine, Gay Men and Something To Say

You remind me of him
You step out of the page
Modelesque in every way
Charm and confidance oozing
Photoshoped ripples and bulges flaunt intent
I want it
I need it
But I resist
Futility borne of lust
Its flaws that give us character
The conduit for chemistry to flow
Imperfections lacking
I see through
Sparkling gold plated over rust
The ultimate embodiment of Westernized perfection
A bit like the former you
Bathing me in compliments
The walls guarding my heart start to crack
He likes the things about me that no one else does
I’m confusing him with you
An empty and quickly passing phase of desire
I close my eyes
The real you appears
I will not be assimilated into your history
I want to be your future
Not your past
A first and a hundredth
Dissolves into nothing
I will not be a number
Nor you to me
Forget where we have come from
We are here
We are now
No longer in quiet desperation
The nots of each others lives unravel
Longing gone
We are happy
We’re in love
We are complete
This is how it should be
Will be
When first we meet
