You stare at my parted lips
Preparing for my kiss
Thinking everything is fine
But you should read between the lines
Situated between the stars
A room filled with stardust  
Fingertips caressing stars
Hands gripping constellations
You’re a galaxy inside a vessel
Im still wishing I could learn everything about your universe
Saudade: feeling of longing for something that you love and which is lost.

you don't hold me
as tight as
you used to

and i can feel
my pieces
starting to slip
apart
been a day...

Stay

Stay.
I want you with me always,
on every breath I count.
Your touch
never leaves, like the tattoos
on my skin.
Everything you are
lingers in my mind
in my very self.
Leaving your side
is losing a limb, a part of me,
the heart of me.
I know
I'm too cliche,
but all I want in this frigid world is to stay
with you.
imagine what it’s like to love a poet
imagine a world of sunny skies
mixed with the hurricanes of a troubled past
but the beauty of it all
is the story it’s inspired by
Pain & Growth
just another beautiful disaster
