if you can't feel love
then
you are only breathing*

not living

because
to live
means
to love
  Jan 2016 Gabrielle Barnes
Kerri
The feathery touch
Of your skin
Is so sincere and warm
My blood starts throbbing beneath.
The bond between
Our hearts
Is strongly entwined
Obtaining a new truth.
Your breath,
Your touch,
Your gaze,
All drive me sanely mad
I no longer choke
On my own loneliness
Because you are my new clarity,
Igniting a flame in my soul,
Jumbling the insides
Of my stomach
In some chaste way.
I'm naive to your potency,
The fool...
Letting your love
Stain my heart
With no regrets.
A poem I wrote when I was 17
Gabrielle Barnes Jan 2016
Forever seems like such a short time,
until you meet someone,
and a forever spent with them,
would be too short.
This is the first time I've ever seen a forever with someone, and its freaking me out?
Gabrielle Barnes Jan 2016
I'm a lover of music,
I listen to it all-
but my favorite sound
in this entire world
isn't any song or tune,
but rather,
the melody that is your voice
Gabrielle Barnes Jan 2016
It's an odd place,
Knowing that you're not in love quite yet;
But all the same,
Knowing that one day-
You just might be.
