There’s Something
Something in the way your blue eyes look back at me,Like a lens into parts of you no one else gets to see,Something in the way your fingers trace the contour of my body,Filled with more than desire; with a thirst to discover every part of me, inside outSomething in the way your arms envelope […]

Fissures
The type of crack that goes undetected, But can still cause harmThin, Understated and silent,Lies under the surface for lengths of time unknown,Then on its own timing, It will push to the front, Damaging everything in its path,Shattering its surroundings,Slithering away, As it watches you crumble into pieces as it goes on to its next […]

Magnetic
Magnetic,A pull I cannot resist,Your blue eyes looking down affectionately at me,Magnetic,A connection like no other,A safe feeling I appreciate,Magnetic, Moving in sync Wordlessly,Magnetic, Like waves crashing into a shore,Emotions washing over me like confetti,Magnetic, A shock to the heart, Awakening a part of me, I thought buried, Magnetic, Fears fall to the floor, As […]

When My Empathy Will Be The Death Of Me
The world seems heavy lately, I’m not pessimistic enough to say it’s broken, but to be fair- at the moment, the evidence is overwhelming. I don’t know if I have always been an empath or if it’s something that has developed over time, especially after becoming a parent, but what I know for sure is […]

I Could Love You
I look into the gorgeous blue that is your eyes, Seeing the depth of possibility, Oh my, I could love you…Passion, wonder and safety, Your finger tracing my face with such delicacy,Oh my, I could love you…Listening to me speak so intently and smiling to yourself,Framing my face with your strong hands as you nibble […]

Connection
Invisible undercurrents,Almost like bolts of lightning, Yet far more impactful, Bursts of emotions and sensations, All caught in my chest and by surprise, Worried if I put life to it all, I will breathe it into reality, Because I have always avoided these feelings,Smiling to myself, Attempting to hide a blush, But failing to hide […]

Red
Red. Fiery. Bubbling hot, Sometimes when the feeling gets too overwhelming,I imagine myself tapping into it,Just under the surface of my skin,Rage soIt pains my chest,Trickling into everything I touch,Damaged. Used goods. Past its prime,Overdue. Doubt fills my ever thinking mind,Apathy seems to follow me. April 2022- R1

Always Remain
Memories are a funny thing,They creep up on you when you least expect it, While you’re doing something mundane, And a thought will hit your senses like a hurricane, Suddenly a pang will strike your chest, Halting your progress, Memories will always remain,Things you assumed buried away many moons ago, Send you reeling to gather […]

The Goals I Have Been Too Scared To Put To Words
Goals, goals, goals, some of us have many and some of us don’t have any. For the most part I have always had a general idea of what I wanted to do with/in my life, but I have never really overtly shared my LIFE goals, that has always been a little more scarier for some […]

Never Know
I wish I meant enough to you to earn your time, I wish you felt the same way I feel about you, But, in the silences- I guess we’ll never know. I wish you trusted me enough to fully let me in, I wish you thought I was good enough to take the risk, But […]
