everything beautiful i can’t make sense of…

you are the sweetest feeling i know – butterflies rising

you’re out there
and i’m here wishing i could
reach for you as easy
as a star could cross a sky…
just fall across your chest
and feel it all again.
your way of settling my madness with
that soft… slow… “baby” late at night,
and how you feel like everything beautiful
i can’t make sense of.
it’s a dangerously pretty edge
when you’re here,
but there’s a wild ache when you’re not,
and my axis pulls and pulls to
wherever you are.
i still feel you, and i miss you
and i miss you…
you are the sweetest feeling i know.

wanting to know the shape of you, without having to lose my own…

how to take you in, but keep me too

i’m here… wanting
to know the shape of you,
without having to lose my own.
but just not yet knowing how…

how to take you in, but keep me too.

how to breathe love and
wholeness all at once.
