like a fingerprint…

my heart against a chest like a fingerprint

i only know
how to crave
skin against skin
and my heart against
a chest
like a fingerprint

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
