American stumbling my way through life as silly little words spill out into the margins. / Alabama, USA.
heart in throat I forget to breathe when I'm with you. And as the sun sets, I wonder, when won't this feel new? lips to skin I always lose myself in your touch. And while my soul catches fire, I ask, will it ever be too much? side by side You tilt your head and smile. And in taking your hand in mine, I say, I think I'll stay here awhile.

in-to-by
Insecure and headstrong     I am numb. Scared to touch you- to feel the warmth of your skin- unaware of the restart-    how to begin?        again? I am numb. I am numb. Unable to shake the dull achy hum. I am numb.

Highlight tomorrow, rewrite the stars that trail across our eyes. I blink at you, smile, and remove my disguise. You’ve got so much light inside, illuminating me with your touch. You brush your cheek across my chest, and the bright golden flood is almost too much. I beg night to stay, I've enough sunrise hidden here in you. You blink at me, smile, and say “I feel it too.”
