Fall
You give me a feeling.. One I can’t help but think I’ve always missed The one I knew all the lucky ones got to feel when they were kids You know? Like, when they’re all giddish and bubbly Almost as to say “My cup is overflowing” You make me feel childishly silly and grown up all at once Kind of like when dad would give me a sip of beer sitting at the dining room table, waiting for dinner The feeling of a love A love that’s safe A love without judgement A love that screams acceptance The kind of love where you dance about to your favourite songs at 00:00 But it’s not really dancing It’s just flopping of arms and kicking of feet Running around on tippy toes Wearing an oversized T-shirt and no pants The kind of love where two bodies sway in the kitchen to the sound of a boiling kettle at 03:00 It’s an embrace that sets you free It’s toothbrushes kissing in the sink after that goodnight cig It’s bare feet meeting in secret under the covers It’s being doused in ecstasy whenever skins intertwine It’s fingers running through unkempt hair It’s laughing at nothing and everything at once It’s waking up to breakfast in bed It’s running shower taps, temperature perfectly set It’s being carried to the tub when you can’t find the will to move It’s you washing my hair It’s tears being wiped away, palm wrapping around my face It’s being remined that I’m alive when I felt dead inside It’s the voice of reason when my mind turns grim It’s two arms folding gently around my waist It’s flashing a grin It’s two hopeful eyes staring at me As if to say “You can’t do any wrong” It’s hearing “I love you” when I don’t feel very strong It’s not always perfect But it’s honest It’s beautifully pure It’s knowing everything will turn out quite alright As long as you’re by my side

Love. Sometimes it lights up your whole world. Other times it shatters your entire universe.

Love
I was still peering into those starry eyes And suddenly into oblivion

Eye Contact
I still feel it, the heartbreak, every other day. It doesn't seem to get better, But It gets easier.

And even when he had all the time in the world. He never quite had enough for me.

Time
My soul will chase yours, as did Apollo with Daphne, over this lifetime into the next. It will not cease to love you, neither will it ever be able to accept the loss of your love. For my heart had been yours upon my first breath drawn in this god forsaken world. But eversince, your love has just been stars I fail to fathom into constellations.
