I can't stop thinking of how
You smiled on that July afternoon,
All golden and warm.
The sunbeams beating down,
Not a cloud in the sky.
Sharing stories and long walks,
Beads of sweat on our foreheads.
I can still feel it, the warmth,
Not from the sun, but from you.
I could have kissed you then,
And we would have been
All golden and warm.

Pull me closer

I'm not sure of much,
But I know that I want him.
My hands in his curls,
His eyes in my mind,
Our clothes on the floor.
No hesitation.
Our bodies together,
Our souls intertwined,
Our breath merging.

He steals my senses.
He is all I can smell,
All I can taste,
And my hurried tongue wants more.
Feeling his weight on me,
Sliding hands, crumpled sheets,
A song of moans fills the air,
Followed by breathy silences.
Pull me closer,
Don't let me go.

iii. why we kiss

we kiss because love is liquid death, and we're just curious to take a sip.
darling, it's okay to wonder about death because you haven't tried it yet. just trust me when i say that love is the slowest, most painful route to take.

And she is.

She once thought,
she wanted to be a poet,
but deep down,
she knew,
she wanted to be a poem.

its gonna make sense

wide spaces

i am a mere word of this page
and you are the phrases i admire most that i can't have.
at least give me a proof of sentence,
that i am still part of your paragraph.
i've never thought that this boundless sea of whiteness
can be so lonesome.
the large gap between us and other words,
feels like the vastness of the ocean,
drowning me in and out of the pages.*

I want to run

I want to run
Leave all this behind
The places that bring
A bitter taste to my mouth
And the people that
I can't stand to see
Run away and feel
My breath leave me
Like all the feelings
That I shouldn't feel
I want to run
As fast as my legs will carry me
As far as I can go
There'll be nothing in my way
