Deep rest

How did we first meet?
I can't recall
Did I seek you out
Did you come uninvited

You came and went away
But mostly you stayed
Casting a shadow over me but kept me grounded
Pushing to the edge but kept me beating
Accompanying through life chapters

If nothing was constant
It was because you already were
But I rented your space to risks and chances
Fooling myself you were just a phase
You keep coming back
Hitting me harder on the next return
Punishing me for thinking
I could continue without you

Here you are again
Whispering softly in my mind
Of ways we could be immortalized
