i love in heartbeats, slow and sweet, so sweet, and hard…

i love in heartbeats, slow and sweet, so sweet, and hard, and reckless

i love in heartbeats,
slow and sweet, so sweet,
and hard, and reckless,
and racing, and so close,
maybe too close…
so then running,
and reaching, and aching,
but in heartbeats, everything,
all of it, in heartbeats

wildfire heart… it’s breathtaking, how your heart spills out of you…

how your heart spills out of you so achingly soft

Wildfire Heart…

it’s breathtaking,
how your heart spills out of you
so achingly soft, and so chaotically unsure,
but as if the entire world catches fire
and you’re wanting to just be
so in love with it all

until this world ends…

breathing in all the life under these stars until this world ends

how you look at
me makes me wonder…
where do i belong if not right here.
right next to you.
breathing in all the life
under these stars until this
world ends

let things break you wide open, that’s where the golden light is…

let things break you wide open,
that’s where the golden light is

wrapped up in sweet…

you just get wrapped up in so much sweet and you don't ever want to come undone.

you lose all
your senses in that kind of love…
you just get wrapped up in so much sweet
and you don’t ever want to come undone.

all tangled up…

his heart. her heart. his curious fingertips... her dangerously soft skin.

all of it tangled up
together… his heart. her heart.
his curious fingertips… her
dangerously soft skin.
