On Silent
I wish I knew what it was like to be smothered in your attention,To never go a day worrying or wondering how you feel about me, I wish I could tap into a reserve of the feelings you claim to have for me,To focus solely on myself and not yearn for someone so much you […]

Unbecoming
Unlearning the negative, self destructive behaviours I partook in,Trying to see and believe in my own self worth, Pushing aside and ignoring the self-sabotaging behaviours I was so used to exhibiting,Not feeding into the imposter syndrome that has become familiar,Tuning out the voice of self doubt and irrational thinking, Breathing in acceptance and breathing out […]

Water Down Your Neck
Trickling slowly,With big, thick droplets,Following the curves of your extended neck,My eyes stay locked in on its movement,Joining other droplets as it makes its descent,Steady and assured,Your hand on my waist, your breath in my ear,But my gaze never leaves your neck,As it gathers momentum, Along with my increasing heart rate, Passion I have never […]

Best Years
They say not to spend much time thinking of the past, But what if my past was wasted on those undeserving, What if I gave the best of me to someone who couldn’t love the worst of me? But what if the well of my love has been bled dry for missed trust and broken […]
