One day,
I woke up and felt
an elusive growth
inside of me.
Something is growing wings,
wanting to fly with joy.
Nauseous,
I wrapped my arms around my own body,
for I am still scared
of heights.

And in a garden of thorns,
you are the only rose I see.

I remember the first time I saw him.
His radiance stole the breath from my lungs,
as if I was outside the atmosphere.
I got lost exploring the galaxies of his eyes,
and I got pulled into his pupils
like a pair of black holes.
His smile revealed a cluster of bright stars.
I wanted to explore his body,
as if he was the surface of Mars.
His laughter caused a supernova in my heart,
the strength of his gravity could tear me apart.
We danced and orbited each other all night,
then we went home to learn about the Big Bang.

Two sugars,
two creams,
turns my black bitter coffee
into a memory of you

And some nights,
as I stare up at the stars
and tears form rivers on my face,
I can't help but wonder
"what if".

Waking up
to the sound of your breathing,
that's when I realized
it was no longer you and I.
It was us.

To be loved by a poet
is to be embroidered with feelings.
To be torn apart,
examined,
and put back together as words
instead of flesh and bones.

I am a writer,
a poet.
I bring words to life
with just the tip of my fingers.
I can create stories
that will make you feel
emotions you didn’t even know
you had.
Emotions so vast,
so deep,
you can’t even name them.
I can send you into a state
of blissful ecstasy,
or sorrowful remorse.
If you will only listen
to what I have to say,
I can make you feel again.

I find comfort in your grey eyes and the way they light up as you tell me you love me
