We’re back in the bedroom
where it all began
let the ocean be your home
let the waves be your road
let the sun be your light
you took me to the mountains
it was late june
the stream below kept you from sleeping
i thought
maybe this was your version of ignoring
who we were below the tree tops.
taking us to cleaner air to make your head feel less unsure
about us
but i think it made you see the gaps
between how your life was with me
and how it was without.
i threw the rose into the canal

and


you pushed the tired away into other people's
eyes
The houses here are like miniature towns,
their walls are crumbled and ruined
and our eyes float up to the signs
above the car windscreen,
he said i make him see everything
differently, its like having a new set of eyes
stop searching
for 'the one'
search for yourself
when he kissed
me goodbye
I held on
with tears
in my eyes
and usually
i don't hold
on to no one
Give me
your truth
even in all
the darkness
and I’ll lead
you to the light
let the golden thoughts you think

tumble out of your mouth like tokens

in exchange for beams of light
i am still
wondering if you
can love me
in every season
after so long
i craved to understand a language in
you that i could not speak
so instead i spent time
decoding your eyes
hoping that your
eyes could converse
more than your lips
they say
trust your
instincts yet
trusting you
with all of my heart
proved them all wrong
us
us
He says “we” in a collective tone

unison

is like having breathing spaces that never get full.
snow white etchings on the glass
a design someone looked to and loved

you are fuller when you look at me in love.
we were just two lovers in venice
loving and leaving,
we were just two hearts in meeting
healing and dreaming
we were like the sun and the moon
existing only in seperation yet
couldn't live without each others light
our emotions
are just like
wildfires sometimes
they have
the power to destroy
and consume us
yet sometimes
they have the
power to
rebuild worlds
just
like wildflowers
blooming in the
setting sun

I cannot
control
how I choose to
grow
two people fell in love
in your room
even after all
those years
nothing
could
change me
we were
standing
outside
in the cold
but couldn't
feel a thing
Blurred and unfocused
Your silhouette is enough to make
My heart weak.
there were days
I danced with angels
and found poetry

I wrote sonnets
and wore us like jewellery
together, we were so
heavenly
honey drenched sun

fallen across his eyes

he lost his rings

in the living room and i cradle this love

like a baby

soft, gentle

tender and i'm never letting it go
I am your 3am star that you see from your window sill

In your daylight slumber,

I am what showers you in curiosity

And wonder

Filled of days with you

So beautifully mastered

I am yours
