you make the world softer,
like morning light through blinds.
yet somehow heavier too..
like a weight i dont want to set down
just to prove my strength
every laugh with you
fills the cracks I thought would stay forever,
but loving you also opens doors
to fears i've nailed shut.
i hold your hand
and feel so soft yet breakable,
like glass wrapped in velvet.
you are the calm and the storm,
and I am always both grateful and afraid.
still
i choose the risk,
the way my chest twists around your name.
because even though its complicated,
you are worth it.

you are the calm and the storm,
and I am always both grateful and afraid.

the way my chest twists around your name.
because even though its complicated,
you are worth it.
