Even my demons are in love with you
 Jun 2016

I like how one minute I'll be laughing
And then you'll kiss me
Passion floods between our lips
And you pull my body
Temptingly close to yours

And things aren't so funny anymore

I built walls with wire
Wrapped tightly around my heart
The wounds hadn't quite yet turned to scars
And I was determined
To not let anyone else
Tear the almost closed wounds apart
I was so afraid
Because everyone else proved to all be the same
But then you came along
Waited patiently for the wire to unwind
So you could climb my towering walls

"I see a universe within your eyes"
You said to me
"I need to see more"

I didn't understand you
Because I saw demons, not daisies
In the garden of my soul
And when I watched you realize that
You took every minute to show me
All that you saw
And tonight
As you sit amongst my thoughts
I'm seeing daisies

Euphoria:
The warmth of your bare chest
Pressed softly against mine

Bliss:
When you hold my exhausted body
Tighter in your arms

Intoxicating:
Your lips on my neck while
Your fingers trace the every line of my back

Delight:
Drunken with sleep
As I feel you watching me

                        
Home:*
                           You.

The sound of your breathing
Is the sweetest lullaby
To ever enchant my ears

I laid there
So bare, so vulnerable
I didn't know how to be this way
But then I felt your fingers caressing my skin
Tracing each and every line of my body
Your breath trickling down my neck
And your eyes were a way they had never been before

You're beautiful

You drunkenly whispered to me
Your sweet nose
Touching my ear
And when my shy eyes met yours
I finally understood all the reasons for the scars of my past
And you,
Are worth each one of them

So this is what they meant
When they said
"Sometimes, there just aren't words."

I didn't know how to handle
All the broken pieces of my heart
They all left
And I believed that I was all alone
But then I looked up
And there you were
Carefully picking up every piece
And smiling while you did it
Like you were honored
To be the keeper of my shattered heart

You've wrapped yourself around me
And I hold on as tight as I can
Because even though
We're cheek to cheek
I could never get close enough

Wrapped in your arms
Lying quietly to see all the stars
Your reached down
And kissed my head
And for the first time in years
I felt beautiful

I thought people were so naive
As they were saying
"I love you"
In less than a month
So casually, so easily
I thought people were so ridiculous
As they kissed on the street
Parading around
For everyone to see

And yet here you are
All I want to do is kiss you
And in so short of time
I think that I love you

Look at what you made me
Took a serious girl and made her silly

You said you wanted to be a part of my world.
But my world has too many demons for someone as beautiful as you.

You were everything beautiful and wonderful.
And I was everything scary and broken.
And yet you taught me,
That I am worth the most passionate of love.
