Month: January 2020

your face
your voice
your generosity
your teasing
your touch

you got me listening to
sappy sweet love songs and
daydreaming all the time
about you and
me and
us and
all the things that could be

you got my heart beating
faster and
my mind feeling calmer
I feel a stillness when I’m with you but
how can time stop and
go so quickly when you’re near

you got these walls
crumbling and
hope growing and
romance seeping back into
every
inch of me

I could spend all night
tangled up in your arms
while you taste the wine on my lips
our tongues dancing
and we talk
about nothing and everything
and explore every inch of
each other
until the sun comes up

I knew they weren’t right for me
I knew one day
I would probably break their heart
but with you…

I don’t know how
you broke down these walls
so quickly.

I didn’t think I could feel like this,
safe,
secure,
and trusting.

When I believed there couldn’t be
something deeper,
something more meaningful,
you planted a seed
deep in my heart and
something sprouted.

words come slower
when happiness runs higher
it’s a sweet place to be

take my hand
I am going to take you
somewhere you’ve never been
and you will feel things
you’ve never felt

when the wine flows through me
the things I’m too afraid to say
I start saying

words and thoughts and fears
constantly
swirling in my mind
but when my head is lying
on your chest
and your arms are wrapped
around me
there is nothing
but calm and love
