that beautiful life…

i want to fall into that beautiful life

i want to fall
into that beautiful life
into the soft spaces
into the glow
where there’s moonlight
where there’s soul light
and where it means
something if you come close
and let your heart beat
against mine

you are more than enough…

you are more than enough

this love
comes sweetly
this gentle awakening
like warmth on your skin
and a breath on your neck
let it say so softly…

you are more than enough.

until this light feels like home…

until beautiful settles easy on you

maybe we

and i could just kiss your skin,
until you feel this light,
until beautiful settles easy on you,
until all that love in you
feels like home
