Someone told me
I feel too much...
like it's
a bad thing
like it's rain on beach day
like it's cold "hot cocoa"
like it's an incomplete "love letter"
like it's snowing on your vacation
//   it's a cold thanksgiving dinner
//   // a pimple on date night
//  //  your period on *** night
//  //  being broke on a Friday
and went on and on and on ... like
someone told me I feel too much
I said
Thank you, I am blessed

There are moments
under the sun
where my heart
remembers warmth
and beats
a blush to
my cheeks

For what separates us from
creating magic
is the lack
of belief
in one's
power

I overdosed on my cupid's arrow
I trip and fall
at that first
different
"hello"

Those spaces
between each line
form the places
where I lose
my
breath
writing about
you
