Words cannot express how deeply I love you.

Thinking too hard, I began to cry.

Enough tears to float a boat.

Overwhelmed with emotion, I began to choke.

Clear ink and wet paper, super soaked.

So, that sweet poem was never wrote.
I am lost.
Yet,
Something is telling me you are just like me.
Maybe
We were put in the darkness
To find each other.
Scibile Definition: Something which it is possible to know.
Love for me
Has never been about
Finding someone who makes you happy
Instead
Has always been about
Finding someone
Who is worth waking up for
In order to face the world
After all
Finding someone
Who makes you happy
Is simple
Happiness
Is sort of a momentary thing
Eventually requiring upkeep
But happiness
Is not a challenge
Instead
Find someone
Who is enough
To make you want to get up
And get through the day
Just so
You can get back to them
To do it again
Tomorrow.
I wish I could write the poem
To make you fall in love with me
But I am still trying
To compose the one
To get me to love
Myself.
There will be times
When your touch is not enough
To wrestle the demons out of me
Times when your hands
Loving in their intention
Will feel foreign
Will feel too similar
To every pair that has hurt me in the past
Will bare resemblance
To every one that has been laid on me
Will remind me of every bad memory I had planned on forgetting
So many times before
There will be times
When your touch is too much
And the amount of affection
Will be far too warranted
For what I feel deserve
Will feel overwhelming
Will feel blanket on heatwave blood
Feel like more than my worth
Worth more time than what I merit
There will be times
When you will have to practice holding me
Rehearse me into routine
Remind me that safety lives in your arms
In your gentle grip
In your palms resting backbone
Calming shoulders speaking comfort
I am still learning to be still
Still learning to not flinch
At a man's touch
But my skin craves to be loved
Almost as much as my heart does
And trust
Is something I am just starting to give out
So in regards to me
And the way you approach my body
Please proceed
With caution.
they all think I'm wearing,
a bulletproof west,
but can't you see,
I'm lying on the ground,
bleeding,
screaming,
and you are still shooting me?

(e.k.j.)
Love.
Love is wonderfull.
Love is painfull.
Love is strange.
Love blind you.
Love is rare.
Love is everywhere .
Love makes you forget.
Love makes you forgive.
Love makes you smile and laught
Love makes you cry.
Love is true.
Love is fake.
Love is you.
