Two rhythms align,
between breaths, a quiet spark
Gravity gives in.

Fingers trace slow sparks,
your name caught soft on my lips.
Night learns how we breathe.

I keep pretending this is small,
like it’s something I can fold up
& tuck away when people are watching.
But you,
you undo me.
In the quiet spaces,
in the seconds our hands meet,
in the way my name sounds different
when it comes from you.
This isn’t a mistake,
no matter how many times the world would say it is.
Because loving you
doesn’t feel reckless.
It feels inevitable.
Like we were always going to find this,
no matter how carefully we tried not to.
& maybe that’s the dangerous part.
That I’ve started thinking in impossible ways,
in “what if we left?”,
in roads with no destination,
in a life where no one gets to tell us no.
Where I could say it out loud,
without lowering my voice,
without checking who might hear.
I love you.
Not quietly,
not halfway,
not in a way that knows how to stop.
I love you enough
to imagine a world without everything else,
if it means I still get you.
So tell me I’m not the only one
thinking about running,
about choosing us.
Because if you are...
I think I would.

Hidden in soft looks,
I love you between heartbeats.
Quiet, but wildfire.

We speak in glances,
like that’s the only safe way to say your name.
I’ve learned the art of almost;
almost touching you,
almost saying what I feel,
almost letting the world see
what burns so easily between us.
But this,
this isn’t small.
I love you.
In every quiet moment,
in every look I can’t hold too long.
And you know, don’t you?
Every secret second
is me choosing you,
even when I’m not allowed to.

I miss how we used to be,
So vibrant, so honest, so wild & free
I miss the way you would understand,
Listen carefully, & be there when I needed a hand
I miss our long, random talks at night,
Our private conversations, our silly little fights
I miss the way you could read my mind,
Know what to say, when words are hard to find
I miss the way you could brighten my day,
Make me forget the mistakes, make the pain go away
I miss how you made me laugh,
I hate how you make me cry
Loved how you said you'd always be there & so did I,
But to you, everything that I say is just a lie

She has a pretty smile,
That goes on for a while
Her teeth are really white,
Some might say what a sight
She is always quick to hug & kiss,
When she's away, I really miss
When I am hurt, she cares so much
She always has that special touch
She quit her job when I was a baby,
So she could play & watch me daily
Brownies, cookies, candy, & cakes,
My Nana really loves to bake
For her job, homes she cleans,
Her clients love her so much they scream!
There really is no test,
My Nana is the very best

I'm tired of dreaming,
I'm through with trying
Tired of living,
yet scared of dying
Maybe things are good for you,
but look at all that I've been through
Look at all the pain I've won,
I bet you think that it's been fun
You never thought I'd turn away,
you never believed you'd see this day
Look again, cause here I go,
leaving behind all that I know
Changing it all as I must do,
not daring to stop & think things through
Wanting to run as fast as I can,
not stopping until I understand
Like why did I let things get this way?
Why didn't I leave, like, yesterday?
How are things going to be,
when there is no more you & me?

I will always love you,
remember that
You can push me away,
but I'll always come back
You can deny your desire,
& say it can't be,
but I won't let the walls
come between you & me
You're afraid of your dark side,
the harm you could cause,
I have never feared your hands,
or their sharp pointy claws
I love them, I love you,
I love all that you are
Protest all you like,
but you will not get far
You can never change my mind,
my heart will stay true
I'll do everything I can
to get closer to you
I will wait for you forever,
so get used to that fact
I will always love you,
remember that...

The feeling of missing you
makes my head spin &
at times I feel queasy
because I used to be able
to write about my pain
& how I'm feeling on paper
or in a poem on this site
so easily as if it were writing
my name on the top of an
all nighter essay that was
due first thing the next morning,
but because of how much I miss you,
I've forgotten how to spell it
