The most common phrase that people use and abuse is "I love you"
They use it with passion
They use it for control
It is a form of expression
To showcase our emotion
From the tip of our tongue
To the clench of our fist
8 letters
Thats holds so much meaning
It holds the power
The power to fix
the power to break
The bond of two can be stronger
Or it can also be over
Only 3 words
That can give you a smile on your lips
And Only 3 syllables
That can give you tears in your eyes
A meaningless phrase until given a meaning
Full of headaches, heartaches, and
broken promises
But be careful
It can all sometimes just be a lie

You look at me as if I have galaxies in my eyes
with planets revolving around my body
and sunshine on my breath
out of the billions of stars in the sky you are my sun
I fell for an astronaut
ready to float through the space in my mind
I inhale your words and exhale star dust
forming the galaxies for you to travel
I am your space cadet,
my major interstellar
teach me to love the cosmos as much as you do
because I still have trouble loving
the constellations you see in me

Face to face
Expansive uncertainty in the shadows
If I hold on to you
I might not be lost into it.
Can’t we create enough light
To force it to retreat?
But you are a part of it too
The steady ocean in your eyes
Froze when I wasn’t looking.
And I lay here, lulled away from shore
Watching shadows pull down the sun.

How long will you linger
On my skin?
Why do I feel you
When I'm wrapped up with him?
He kisses with your lips
Your fingers dance on my hips
If I close my eyes
I can almost pretend
But his fingers grab too tight
He is trying to push you out.
I bruise,
I bleed.
But you are the one
Who broke me.
His marks will fade
You will linger on my skin.

In the reverberation of ecstasy,
Before one unfolds into two,
I Love You
Silence fills the space between our lips.
I believed the flicker in your eyes.
But it was my own reflection.
Ricocheted off ice.

Yesterday.
Imperfect, beyond perfect,
and everywhere between
barefaced bliss and bittersweet.
And I told him I loved him.
I know.
And he held me.
Let me trace that word
between your shoulders.
A single tear to baptize the silence.

As water is to cleansing rain
and heat as to burning flame,
so are you to me; the same.
My fiery rain.
Fill the gutter of my mind.
Fire the coal your heart has mined.
Burn me to the end of time.
Your fire does reign.

Are you my springtime,
Here to drive away the cold hands
That envelop my heart?
Warm the earth
So I can blossom.
I promise this time
I will grow towards the sun.

I’m tired of being cold.
Hot water
Rolls down skin.
Hot bodies collide,
And I steal that fire.
But the ice won’t melt.
Deep in my cave
A heart,
Protected in frost.
Alone.

It’s not fair, what you ask of me.
I grew up for you.
Do me a favor and do the same.
I’m not your crutch.
I can’t be your mother and daughter too.
I used to try.
And I used to cry.
I give up struggling to be what you need.
Please just let me be
Me.
