what is inside your heart? you ask

i swear i’ll never feel love for someone else another soul. you’re the only one on my mind and inside my heart; 

you’re written 

all over the walls

are there enough words to describe what you do to my heart i think not

i

   think 

         not

do you

ever wonder

if my poetry

is about you?

do you make my heart sing?

do the birds carry our heartbeats in their beaks like a sweet song with a lovely melody they’re afraid if they let go of, it’ll shatter and never be the same again? 

do rose and jack’s breath hitch? do their heart skip a beat when we speak? our breath caught on every tree; your laugh filling my soul and heart with warmth

one breath of yours can keep my heart beating for an eternity, but it has to be with you cause otherwise, what’s the point? the love i feel for you can fit into a 300-pages book and it still wouldn’t be enough. 

yes, it’s about you. it’s always been about you. . .

10:04pm

“your smile will be the death of me”

i want to talk

about the birds again. 

they can hear our giggles even thirty minutes away

when our glistening eyes

reflect the screens 

we see each other’s names

and we smile

i hope it to be like this

i know i’m like this

i see your name and i don’t stop smiling. 

i may d�" with this smile

this smile will die with me

and i’d only be grateful. 

“your smile will be the death of me”

the telepathic poet lover and lover

“i want to be a poet” i say twiddling my fingers together so i can feel the warmth with every gentle touch. 

“you are already one” she says 

then she thinks:

speaking beauty into the unknown like a comet hurdling in space slowly and in reverse taking moments to admire the sun as she fades away into darkness. you know you don’t have much time so you make your heart bare and swollen with love. so much that it bursts and you can feel vulnerability and being so bare you think a single touch [from him] will harm you. 

she smiles at her in silence and thinks deeply:

my thoughts are always drafted yet bravely released from my tongue. i want you to harm me like this.

what i think about versus what i say: a love poem, one tragically ripped away from existence because it was too tender and soft

i love you. i love the way you talk. i love the feeling of your heart in my mind. our hearts are linked and they beat warmly together. we will always share the same heartbeat. we are one. 

i love you

my heart is warm hearing your voice on record

i’ll save it in my heart forever 

2:10pm

ghosts/ghost show (they/them pronouns used for a single person) �'"

the people who roam in the aisle don’t know of the ghosts that live inside me. 

they see me as a worker. 

coming out of the break room. 

they don’t know of my love for my friend. 

the eternal struggle i will always hold inside my heart to want them and to love them gently but never be able to hold them. 

the despair i have of leaving them. 

not working around them. 

how it’s never going to be the same. 

but all these strangers see me as is another stranger and i’m in love with them. 

and i’m in love with them

♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡☺︎

i want to love everything i love all at once

I want to feel it in my blood. I want to feel the warmth on my skin and on my face. I want to feel overwhelmed by the feelings I feel when I’m with you. When I’m without. I get to feel the Unholy air feels when we are away

Come back

Hug

Let’s share a laugh. 

One last time

To remember what we had

Even if it was friendly

Just once

One time

I’d like to hear your laugh

And feel your warmth

I miss you

4 months and five days

Is 4 months

And five days

Too long without you

Just once

Just once

Just once. 

“I miss you more than you know and you loved me and I loved you, just you to me…not in the same way. 

More. More amor. And none from you. You left me dry (s.c., 2022) and like a twig. Alone in a forest full of lookalikes. But I know you. I know your breath. I know your scent. I know your laugh. Mi amor, forever even if you don’t belong to me,”

I didn’t know love could feel like a sunflower kiss

I knew that working would give me experience <3 and it could help me write my stories….I never knew I’d fall in love with her.

and he places his hands on my lower back

and i reach my hands up to behind his head 

and i kiss him slowly 

and i can feel his hands

and he’s so beautiful

and he is so beautiful
