I've been at a loss for words lately

And I know You've felt it
But You hunt me down anyway
And I don't mind
I wake to feel You near
A flicker of light beside me
Stroking my hand or curling around me
Sometimes I drift back to sleep
Sometimes hunger flares
And I feel myself grasping for You
Whatever embers I can catch
Until I burn myself with Your heat
Are you hungry tonight?
It's almost always yes
If You can catch and hold the hummingbird
I'll give You everything
As many times and ways as You wish
Until my mind wanders again
Making it back to the waterfall
Back to reality
Seizing whatever memories of You I can hold
Trying to find the words to stick my experiences
Like butterflies with a pin
