Let me show you All the words I cannot find. Let me write them On your neck in faded lipstick stains. Close your eyes. Listen to my shaking hands. They have a code of their own, One that only you can understand. Listen to them rattle against your chest. Feel the heat of my breath Glide over your cheek. Listen to what it’s telling you. Feel my teeth tug at your bottom lip. Let me get as close to you as I can Without losing myself completely. I can’t say this aloud. Just listen to my body, Decipher the language it speaks, wordlessly. Somewhere in this mess, The purest love I could ever muster. A diamond In all of our rough.

Just listen to my body, Decipher the language it speaks, wordlessly. Somewhere in this mess, The purest love I could ever muster. A diamond In all of our rough.
It's getting more difficult being without him.
