you take all of
my walls down with
this fever-driven dream
and we’ve got messy hearts
with your skin against mine,
but as much as fear has my head
gripped and you at arm’s length,
we. still. intertwine.
you’re a soul instinct.
and this feeling is a heart imprint.
and when you’re this close to me
there’s this way your
heartbeat promises to take care of my
own… so maybe it’s safe to just give in
to slow kisses on wild skin.

…wanting to know the shape of you, without having to lose my own… and not yet knowing how. how do i take you in, but keep me too. how do i breathe love and wholeness all at once.

i’m here… wanting
to know the shape of you,
without having to lose my own,
but just not yet knowing how…
how do i take you in, but keep me too.
how do i breathe love
and wholeness all at once.

she’s not coming back.
a 4-word story for the boy
who mistakenly thought she’d never
realize her worth and walk away

i just know…
it’s soft next to you.
it’s safe if i come close.
and there’s destiny here,
there’s meant-to-be
in your hands.
and you don’t have
to say a thing,
it’s in the way i’m shifted…
you just walk in,
and my heart beats different.
