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

we love like fireflies,
how we gravitate to each
other’s glow

– butterflies rising

i love all those little
pretty, dirty edges where you play…
so beautiful and wild all at once.

– butterflies rising

i just like your way,
the way you feel, how you are,
who you are… i’m just drawn to you.

– butterflies rising

the way the
sunlight danced on her skin
and stardust lived in her eyes…
he knew he’d never want
to look away

– butterflies rising

i love in energy

– butterflies rising

this is
aching… and
this is hope.
staring out at the
nashville skyline,
and wondering
where you are,
and if your skyline is just
as beautiful,
and does it hold all these
promises of us too
