I miss your warmth, your touch, your nearness,
I miss the solid figure I see in the darkness,
When I wake at night.

I miss your warm breath,
On my ear when I'm drifting in and out of sleep,
And I miss your hand, lazily resting on my leg when you wake during the long night.

I miss your presence, your comfort, your breathing,
I miss the way you make me feel less alone when I need it
Jasmine Aug 2016
When the day comes to an end
And the muscles in my body are relaxed and ready for rest
I no longer have to think of the day ahead
And my brain seeks thoughts of the life I may come to lead
All I can hope is that I find happiness in whatever I do
I know that sadness is enivitable
Whether it be the loss of a loved one
Or, less poingant, a disappointing grade,
I'll know inside there are happier moments to come,
The sadness is temporary, and with effort and positivity,
it will fade

hands
That burn into my skin with the fire of a thousand suns.
Engulf me in your heat and blind me with the bright flames in your eyes.
Singe my tongue with your soothing warm breath.
And please,
Will you smile at me with your eyes?
Look so deep
That you can see through my skin and into my vains,
See my hot blood rushing to the surface when it senses we are touching.

But at the same time,
Please,
Freeze my whole body,
And stun me as your fingers trace my skin,
Like beautiful icicles brushing against the window to my soul.
Make my ears shiver at the slow sound of your heart,
And melt my lips as I kiss where it beats

I had to look up
the word
'dating'
on Urban Dictionary
because I didn't know
what we were,
what we are.

And it said things like
'a socially acceptable
form of prostitution' and
'feelings of
puppy love that usually
dissolve
in a few weeks'.

But this is
not
puppy love.
This is not going to
dissolve or
fizzle out or
whatever,
you're not a
fizzle
you're a *******
fireworks display.

And you turn
everything in my head
into this
multi-coloured
turbulence and
I can't keep up with
how much I
adore you.

But the thing is
I don't know
if your view
is as good as mine.
What if you're
looking at something
a little less
beautiful.

What if I'm your
fizzle.

What if I'm as
temporary
as the flame you use
to light the
cigarettes
you find more
addictive
than my touch.

If that's the case
I'd rather
I left you
craving.

Because
if I'm your flame
you're my
forest fire
and you're burning
it all down until
the only thing left
standing is
you.

And I'll walk for
miles across this
carpet of ashes
just to feel the
softness of your skin
against mine.

And I'll cough
and I'll splutter
on toxic smoke
but you'll just
breathe it in because
you never realised anything
was even
lost.

You don't see me
crawl
you just know that
I'm here,
I'm here
I made it
I'm yours
I'll always be yours
because there's
nothing else
left.

And maybe
I can be
content with that
if only
you will see
that
you could burn down
everything
and I still
wouldn't put you
out.

Is it possible to fall in love with the same person twice?
I think I have.
Just a look from him can plunge my heart deep into a place where new, unfound love exists.
A place where I feel like I'm falling all over again,
Into his beautiful mind,
His captivating soul,
His otherworldly features
And a foreign place,
where it is only we who understand
the language of our adoration and desires
Jasmine Jan 2015
I do not believe in soul mates - that there is a being on this earth for you and only you.
Love is a matter of circumstance, timing and the feelings that are developed with these.
But I do however, believe that sometimes we fall in love and think 'this is it'.
This happens only once.

we are not meant to spend our lives with everyone we fall in love with.
But when you get that 'this is it' feeling, when you truly feel that -
That is the closest thing to 'soulmates' anyone can get.

My Scarlet Amora
In the dark I can find your lips
I know exactly where you are in space
You're breathing is quickening
And I'm breathing you in
I just need you everywhere
Skin on skin yet not close enough
Can you feel my heart beating for you?
I can't focus on anything except you
The way you keep looking at me
Makes me feel invincible
Can you taste the desire on my lips?
The pain in my heart
Please don't ever stop
