so deeply
the slow burn of turning into strangers terrifies me the most i promise to keep your secretos cerca de mi corazon i promise to think of you con amor i promise to send besitos in the wind that touch every part of you at once i promise to send hugs in the warmth of the sun's rays onto your soft, tattooed skin i promise to send hope in the soft pastel of today's sunset basking infinitamente sobre las montanas mi tortugita, a tu manera, descomplicado i'll see you in my dreams where we can touch otra vez i'll think of you when i stare at the waves hitting the shore sweeping our sadness deep out to sea i'll be with you looking up at the twinkling stars you brought those to life in me i'll meet you on every dance floor when our songs come on el amor vive en el alma there will always be space in my heart para ti latiendo para ti

slow burn
i cut it open an afternoon treat on a sunny day those blood oranges screamed of you. beautiful & vibrant tender & lovely deep & fragrant i couldn't eat them. i gazed at their beauty each angle better than the one before i carried them with me all day thinking of you an ache in my heart as if I needed a reminder that I chose to set you free.

Enough
skip in my step grief behind me beats pulsing through my speakers dont rush, slow touch sun streaks through the window the journey to self power radiating letting go of these scripts in freeing my heart i, too, set you free.

journey to self
if we were a garden i'd be a flower you'd be a sprout both beautiful, alive, delicious we grow apart we appear to be separate distance between us standing on our own tall & proud but underneath the soil, our roots are tangled together holding hands quietly nourishing each other to grow strong & healthy on our own even in separation, we are connected. to give the one you love space is a magical gift holding you has always felt so right. just give me time.

Holding Hands
Deep sobs. Grief has struck. The loss of you running down my cheeks. Clutching my heart Though it might fall out into my hands. It bleeds dark red and sadness, Barely beating. Cracked in a million pieces. It feels cold in my outstretched palms. Little shoots are popping up. Flowers sprouting from its softness. You helped me sprinkle those seeds. You helped me grow. To blossom. More colourful than I ever imagined. Yellows, blues, & oranges. Wild flowers every which way. Petals floating to my feet. I am more beautiful because of you.

from death to flowers
Your hands cupping my face Strong & grounded Gaze piercing through me like you'd Never seen anything more beautiful. What an honour to know a love like this You lean in Your soft lips brush mine Tastes like love. The tenderness of a lover Like bread fresh from the oven Warm & soft & gentle Fills up the whole body As it finally reaches my mouth A deep sigh releases from my lips At last, I am home.
