Together Alone

Summary:

I'm not a poet, but here's a mildly rhythmic smattering of words that popped into my fron from the prompt: "Stranded." Major angst alert.

Work Text:

Stranded with you, but not trying to be found. There's no way to have what we’ve found here if we leave with someone else.  

But what we have is what we don’t—stranded in this place where we can’t move on, and moving backwards would scar.  

So we’re stranded here waiting for someday, knowing it's a long shot, but I don’t want to be rescued if it's without you.  

We only want the things we want together. Wanting them alone or with someone else would break me—break us.  

We’re a party of two with no reservations. Barriers and hesitations like a forcefield between us, but I won’t leave this island.  

Stranded with you, but not trying to be found because nothing could be better than being Together Alone.
