Asleep in my arms
Soft as you breathe
Comfort in your presence
My world is at ease

I cannot but smile
I haven’t been this ...
                   at peace
For quite some time

At last I have found
Someone to treasure
To have and to hold
From this day - forever

She tastes like a piece of heaven
Captured in a human body
Soft and sweet beneath my tongue
Fingers in my hair or her mouth on my neck
The way she sinks into my arms
The blissful euphoria of her touch
And the way she moves,
A memory of madness and delight,
Sounds that make my heart flip and my jaw drop,
An intoxication
A high
Love is indeed a drug
When I am caught between her legs
And reeling with the sensation of -
Desperate.  
Need.

She walks on moonlight
And in the purple dusk
In between those murky moments
just before the sun disappears
Bluest eyes
Seem to glow
Under that pale moon
and all those falling stars
Where smiles glow white
And man gives way to werewolf,
Under the cover of night,
All things
find an unnatural way about them
Be careful where those glowing eyes go,
Under pale moonlight,
Some things
Come to being
And they are more than just the lonely woods ...

The softened feeling of chapstick against a cheek
Where pressed her mouth to brush me quickly in surprise
The slightly dampened paste stuck against my face
A stamp I never want erased
I’d treasure it like an angels touch as
It is an Angel
My angel kissing me
Leaving a piece of herself to seep into my lips and to redden my cheeks  
Leaving me floating in the wake
Of her ethereal bliss
Longing
For her simplest touch
Once again

Someone tell me how to stop being afraid
Did u know
Stonewall
Was a riot
But rioting still happens
50 years later
The violence will never stop
And neither will the fear
Still fighting ignorance
50 years later
Someone tell my black friends how to stop being afraid
Did you know
Wars
Were fought for freedom
centuries ago
But we are.
Still.
fighting racism and bigotry.
Centuries later
The violence will never stop
And neither will the fear
Still battling inequality
Centuries later

why.
Are we still all afraid of each other?

i love being Alive.

i never thought I’d say that

But here I am

If life is a journey

I want to climb every single rock

And swim every single river

Just as long as I can be

Alive.

I never thought I’d want this

But here I am

To live, indeed, is a whirlwind

But it’s one I want to dance with

I am discovering

Brushing off love’s dust
Re-examining my roughened shell

I never knew love could feel safe
But there it is
Etched into my lover’s pottery

I never knew love could be pretty and kind
But there she is
Cleaning off my husk of a heart and glowing as she smiles

I don’t even think-
She knows-
Just what she’s done.
But there it is
My brightened clay  

No longer feeling dusty
No longer feeling fragile

She makes me feel beautiful
But I know
She will not let me break

so this is how it feels when love is truly returned...
