while you’re holding it…
…maybe it’s brutal when you have to let it fall from your hands, but god, how beautiful it feels while you’re holding it.

maybe
it tangles with chaos
and loses hold of safe and sane…
but that kind of love will be like wildfire.
and the way they touch you
will feel like wildfire.
and your heart…
it will take everything in like it’s on fire.
and it may be heavy on your soul when it breaks you,
but only because you burned so deep for it.
maybe it’s brutal when you have to let it
fall from your hands,
but god, how beautiful it feels
while you’re holding it.

Sun-flavored Love…
i’ve learned that
i deserve more than a starved love…
that kind where you feed off of me
because you can’t fill yourself
i deserve rich love, extra love
abundant and sun-flavored and overflowing on me
because you’re full within yourself

i’ve learned to
be gentle with that part of
me that takes it in so deeply
and holds on to it for far too long,
that’s also the part of me that loves
like an awakening and knows what it’s like
to trace a soul in my fingertips

how powerful music can be…
…some songs are just barely becoming safe again,
and some songs maybe never will be.
and i think that’s just how powerful music can be.
it’s such an aesthetic in our existence. we feel so much
from it, and because of it, and through it… and
so it can break us completely open in heartbreak,
but i wouldn’t trade that for how much it makes us feel
alive and free and infinite, and in love, in all of
the beautiful moments.

you’ve been chasing down
the kind of love
that greets you with nothing more
than a shoulder shrug…
the kind that whimpers your name in apathy,
don’t you know that you deserve a love
that holds so much abundance,
one that shouts to the heavens in your honor
queen / king

sometimes what you feel
about someone just isn’t enough.
it just isn’t.
because what they feel about themselves
will try to destroy what you feel about yourself
if you get close to them.
