effort
i miss myself. the smell when i got out of the shower my laugh looking in the mirror and smiling telling people i love them when did being myself become something that wasn’t important anymore?

myself
my life has been a drought spent waiting for a storm. to fix me and bring life. now here you are, showering me with love. when will I be okay again?

waiting
each ventricle in the heart is supposed to do a job but never mix their contents. we form a heart. filled with love, blood, and life. but we are never allowed to mix. we are in rhythm separate we are together.

anatomy of us
you make me want to kiss one thousand other people. so that maybe for a split second i could forget how much i love you. but why would i give myself up? you are all i want.

one thousand people
soft yellow glow surrounding you a halo. each curve so delicate like clouds. the smile you give to me pure sunlight. my heaven. my love. you are here forever waiting to welcome me into safety.

personal heaven
dripping in your love i find myself licking each finger and savoring the sweetness. your approval tastes like chamomile, blackberries, and melted icecream. the taste of you is even sweeter. to be here drenched in your affection is the most saccharine dream i could ever hope to imagine.

sticky love
i will put on my dress and slip on my shoes and look myself in the eyes. me to me saying goodbye. goodbye to all the hatred. goodbye to all the anger. goodbye to all the jealousy. goodbye to me. i will lay down on the earth waiting to be absorbed into the rich soil and pray and pray and pray that when i am rebirthed. i am every bit as beautiful but new.
