Plan and simple

Plan and simple

A Poem by Rachel DeHart

It hits me hard the first time

                when I finally realize how much

                I want to

keep you

forever

has always seemed like a very

                                very

      long time.

but now. It doesn’t seem nearly long

           enough.

                                  because love,

i want you in my life

for the rest of it.

The rest of everything.

and it is a harsh reality,

when I realize,

I have spent a lot of time hoping

that when it       came down to it

                                      I wouldn’t be waking up again.

 

but now.. now I have never been happier.

never been more alive.

 

this.

this right here between us, the tension,

the electricity that pulses between us and

makes breathing

                                irregular

makes our  heart beats

                                speed and stutter

it is love.

dear.

 

plan and simple.

I love this! The layout is great (as always).

I think this is my favorite part
"it is love.
dear."

Jut because of the simplicity and honesty to it.

This is great :]

Every day I wake up now is a gift, because I tried to stop the sun from rising. I find talking to be the hardest thing ever, but I am trying to find the words. My hair is a constantly changing cre.. more..
