Adjectives
I am running out of words in my vocabulary,To describe just how magical you make me feel,Cells perform summersaults in my veins,Your name flashes up on my phone,And instantly my heart rate increases exponentially,I would drive hours to simply get a minute in your space,You see me,You love me,But not the kind that is said…

Every Time
I don’t know what it is, But, every time I love you more,I look across the room and my heart flutters,Every time I love you more,You brush past me and let your fingers linger,And every time I love you more,We smile at each other from across the room,And each time, I love you more,There is…

Little Porcelain Bird
I can’t help it,I am so used to fending for myself,Fighting for emancipation,Wrestling away help like my life depended on it,Resistance felt normal to me,Conflict and struggle part of the norm,That now, with your love so enveloping,I feel like a fragile little bird,Made of rare porcelain, But chipped and cracked,Weathered from misuse,A rare gem,One we are…

Alone In Bed
I often find sleeping alone to feel so lonely,Lying awake, staring into the dark,While your heart aches to be somewhere else,With someone else,The empty side of the bed,Feels like a void,Gapping and ever present,You’re just one of those people,Alone,It happens,But the cold draft coming from not having anyone there,Starts to wear on you,It feels hollow,…

The Beauty Myth
I think we can all accept and understand that visually, our eyes naturally gravitate towards beauty. It almost makes sense to the eye, but that’s not to say that beauty is a singular thing. What is beautiful to me will not necessarily be the same for you. All that to say, the myths we have…
