One Hundred and Fifty Six

I found somebody.

I wasn't looking for it.
It just sort of happened.

I mean
it didn't 'just happen'.
I...I made it happen. I let it.
I let it happen.

But for all intents and purposes, I never looked for it. I just found it.
Or it found me.
It crashed into my life when I least expected it, didn't really need it,
didn't know I wanted it. And it grew.
It grew into something organic and fair-trade and green green
green like the earth from space so green it looks blue.

And it's everything you never told me it'd be.
Probably everything you never got around to admitting I could have.

I don't know if I can share this with you.
I don't know if I'm ready, quite yet, to have to care
to have to worry
about what you think of this.

Could you just
be happy?

Is there a way you could hear this.
All of this. What I'm saying.
Is there some way you could hear all this
and just be happy?

Cos I am.
I found somebody.

me.
