BY TARQUIN RAFFERTY-SUTHERLAND

Are you the one?
the only one…
the one for whom I crave?
Are you my love?
my sweetest love,
for whom, I would seek out my grave.

With your love as a shield to strengthen me,
life’s trials would hold no fear
and as a cloak that might encompass me
…and all that I hold dear.

Are you the one? The only one…
My heart?
My life?
My soul?

…alone, I can be but a part
embraced – we form a whole.
