we lose ourselves in the wild blush…

we lose ourselves in the wild blush, and the moment grips at us to stay. here.

we lose ourselves in the wild blush,
and the moment grips at us to stay. here.
where time is no matter, and our heartbeats
are everything… so stay. here.
and just feel this.

cherry lip gloss stain: the slow goodnight…

my cherry lip gloss stain on your cheek

my cherry lip gloss stain on your cheek…
and how you gripped to keep the car door closed
as if you were afraid opening it would mean
everything we felt in that moment would fall out
never again to be contained

my heart is tethered to a soul i’ve always known

my heart
is tethered
to a soul
i’ve always known,
in a person

there’s that corner of your smile…

there’s that corner of your smile, the one towards me when you're in the driver's seat

there’s that
corner of your smile,
the one towards me when you’re
in the driver’s seat…
how it lifts just a little when i say
something sweet

…add that to my favorite things.

‘wanderlove… that late night drive, make me a mixtape, talk till 3am…

that late night drive, make me a mixtape, talk till 3am, stay up too late

that late night drive,
make me a mixtape,
talk till 3am, stay up too late,
lay at the foot of your bed,
tell me what’s inside your head,
wander my way through all the wonderful
ways of who you are,
kind of love

soulmates don’t speak in bare minimums…

soulmates don't speak in bare minimums… so know that when they are meant to love you

soulmates don’t speak in bare minimums…

so know that when they are meant to love you,
they would have to fight it to not feel it…
it will be in their stars. you will
be in their stars.
