Talking to you is a part of my daily routine
Just the words ''I love you''
ignites that creative spark inside me

I could talk to you for endless hours
and never get bored
and as soon as you go to sleep
you'll be the only one on my mind

until I get lost in yet another fantasy
and imagine you and I together
in my explicit dreams

I've known you for not so long
but it feels like forever and a day
since you captivated my heart
like a beautiful love song
taking all my bad thoughts away
and replacing them
with a smile
and happy eyes

My first sip of you

Sweet, strong, and everlasting

A taste of rich love

Soft and smooth, can't get enough

My first cup of hot coffee
Laying next to you
On the pavement
Watching you count the cars
Rushing mere
Millimeters away from us
I realized there is a god
Just not the god
Everyone keeps on talking about

I don't think god has
White flowing robes
And clouds at his feet

I can see god
Drinking hot cocoa
When his apartment
Feels a little too big
Because it reminds him
Of home

I can see god
Buying pink peonies
To put on his father's grave
Every first Thursday
Of the month
Because Thursday
Was his favorite day

I closed my eyes
For a split second
I saw the face of god
And darling,
it looked a lot like yours

A bit lovestruck by a perfect guy
who always makes my day
he makes me smile
he makes me laugh
I've definitely got a crush

he takes my breath away
with every word
and sentence
I feel like
I'm in heaven
completely lost in fantasy
day dreaming is now
my favorite hobby

Lethargy

let me tell you about lethargy
lethargy is like picking up the phone with your feet
because your mind is too tired
to send a memo to your hands
lethargy is making your lips dance
around a string of twizzlers for dinner
just barely

lethargy is so strong
you can't even remember what rolling out of bed feels like
in fact rolling out of bed
feels like lying in bed
the only move you make is to lay your head
on the cool side of the pillow
rarely

lethargy is getting to that point
where you lack all strength to breathe
eyelids way too heavy to see
the body feels numb
and the only thing the ears can hear
is the heart
"Ba-Dum..Ba-Dum"

i take refuge in you
sheltered from the rain
fingers brushing in close proximity
your chilled exhale caresses my cheek

i take refuge in you
i savor this moment
sweet like honey
warm like spring

i've come face to face with demons
clothed in depression and unforgiveness
whispering words of anger and bitterness
how relentless
those demons...

that visited me frequently
choking me in my slumber
reminding me of every regret
i'm inclined to second guess
myself
those kinds of demons...

that peer around the corner
whisper in your ear
increase your anxiety
strengthen your fear
yes, those kinds...

little *******
try to pin me down with defeat
they sing, "hey~ do you recognize me?"
and to that i answer, "yes" in  español.

yes, I recognize you,
but as of now I don't care
when I focus on the good things in life
you're not there.
