23/F/Iowa Just someone who loves to read, to knit, and to read some more. A coffee and a notebook are also great company.
You are my light, My hope, my guide. The hand reaching out, The reminder to breathe, The arms that hold me, And take all the sadness away. You are love, The kiss I look forward to, The hug I never want to let go of, The person I want by my side, For the rest of my life.

The One
A flower so close to bloom, Conjuring love, courage, and wisdom To know it is loved. A flower hidden between the rocks, Under a bridge, Waiting to be discovered; Waiting for someone willing to unwind a path, Someone to trek through the ***** unseen pavement. A flower, Caged to the ground, Lonely, but deserving. It notices someone reaching down. Someone with scratches, bruises, Covered in dirt, leaves in their hair, And a small path carved behind them.

Your voice: I hang on every word you say, Every melody you sing, Every moan you sigh. I am captivated, By the way words – sounds – linger off your tongue. The way an “I love you” sounds when we are tangled in sheets, How we are so out of breath it all falls out as one quick Iloveyou.

Listening
Inhale before the kiss, Gentle fingers tracing down, Hands on hips pulling in, Lips colliding. Bodies tangled, Deep breaths, Tongues dance, Hearts colliding.

Moments
The thief. The challenger. Pieces of you Filter through my heart, Like stars through glass. The dreamer. The wild. Thoughts of you, Run through my mind, Like light through trees. The extraordinary. The remarkable. Pieces of me, Reserved for only you.

My love, Don’t dismiss yourself Because you haven’t found Your light yet. Do we minimize The Moon’s beauty Because it needs The Sun’s light to show it?

Shining Bright
Do you not see your greatness-           Your beauty, that radiates from your smile? Do you not understand that others look at you           and see far deeper than you can with a mirror? I know you don't think much of yourself,          and I know you don't believe others kindness, But there are people who think the world of you;           so the next time you feel the doubt, the uncertainty           weighing you down, Remember:           my belief in you exceeds the stars.

Exceeds the Stars
I want to travel, But only if you are right there Planning the trip with me. I want to explore, But only if you are right there Navigating the mountains with me. I want to see every landmark, But only if you are right there Climbing every step with me. I want to see the world, But only if it is you Who wants to see it with me.

Right There
You are a complex rhythm I want to dance to endlessly. My favorite song, permanently on repeat. Hooked first by how catchy the tune was, But now completely captivated by every lyric I memorize And how my fingers tap along to every melody. I fell in love with your song And now, I never want to hear anyone else's.

My Favorite Song
But the boy told the girl, “I will always protect you.” And, for the first time, She believed him. The boy told the girl, “You are special.” And, for the first time, She believed him. The boy told the girl, “Your soul is made of pure gold.” And, for the first time, She believed him. The boy told the girl, “I love you.” And, for the first time, She believed him.
