#physicaltouch
I crave physical touch. I want to be wrapped in someone’s arms as i listen to the musical drum of their heart and the reverberation of their voice as they speak to another I want to hold hands with the people i love and never let go in hopes that they’ll stay forever

Physical touch
The same girl who could love you with her eyes closed, chooses to see you. Even the parts you don't like or even the parts you can't see. The same boy who loves you with his eyes, doesn't see all of you. Misses the parts of you that you think shine, and the parts you know everyone else can see. The same couple who love differently, love the same, if only you look close enough. It was the eyes for her, and the hands for him. It was the love and affection for him, and the words for her. It was how he looked at her, and how she looked at him. If all it took was a look, why were their eyes closed?

sameness
no such thing as verbal when you just sit next to me, shoulders burdened by the world and that is my cue to be pliant as you sigh and press yourself deeper into my being. (your face buried in the crook of my neck as i draw small circles on your arm, funny how you look like a child with a halo from the moonlight kissing your crown) and i apologize i cannot make the stars and skies be within your reach or I, better than your early lovers. but if you, so gently, lay your bones where i could keep them until your soul jumps right into you, ready to conquer once again, then be your home I shall. —2:06AM
