Why are you so curious, dear?

You're too young to know

What it feels like

To fall in love.


Sooner or later

You'll learn that love

Is a one big mess

That will leave a stain in your heart.


I guess, that's what love is.

You can't explain it,

But you can feel it.

It's the best and worst feeling.


There's no such thing as

Love at first sight.

There's a difference

Between love and what we call, infatuation.

I want to be alone,
to sit between the
concave hollows of my bones,
nestle beneath folds of skin,
shut my eyes and
make the world go dim,
just me and a pulse,
a heartrate pumping blood
and when I open them
it's not the floodlit streets,
wars, fires or anger I see
but the trees and fields;
the peace i wear like a glove,
vowing not to take it off the
minute things get tough.

souls
are filled
with
oceans
what
moves
inside of them
are
tides and waves
storms crash
inside of them
with
lightening and rain
what
fill my ocean again

One day
we will
be together
forever and
we will
not notice
the lines
of age
spread across
our smiling
faces.
