Its like all the lovers
I had
are forever etched in my mind
I hope I am etched in there's too
I saw the man the other day The one
I gave my heart to
and he just gave his body to me
that was all
and barely that
Its like I can't get his eyes out of my mind
the green golden hazel eyes
and the relaxed feeling that I felt just being with him
I remember one of the first men that I met
when I came here
when I had just left religion
we went to his apartment
he wasn't religious
he was kind
so cute and sweet
and romantic
I remember sitting on this porch
with my shirt off
staring at him
him staring at me
with a look of adoration
and I felt so blessed to be in that moment
so looking back in reflection
not all the men I met in my life
were horrible
many were kind
and I just forgot that
because I closed my heart off
to everything for so long
and now slowly
I feel like my heart is slowly starting to open
curious how the world looks
when we start to remember the beautiful moments
not just the bad or terrible ones.
So I hope wherever you are
if it is in jerusalem
where we met or somewhere else here
I wish you well
and I wish you blessings
for treating me with such kindness and care,
and I hope you think of me from time to time.
