#sweep
i believe in fast, sweeping love one that you couldn’t prove until you do the one that makes the edges smooth i wrap you in my vines tie bows to your thighs i will never let you leave my life slipping into the sweetest side

Sweetest Side
i keep on thinking of words— to unite, to collide; but in everything that i do, memories of you and i, sweep me off of my feet— with such delight.

such delight
Pain teaches us about storms and their power of sweeping away The lesson that, only when the old and unecessary is gone a new calmness can take it’s place

Love letters to the soul
the cold swell of emptiness crashes hard over my naked soul floating in the middle of a masochistic murky sea I pray the tide shall sweep my aching body away I grieve yet the waves laugh as they drown me

When at the right time those winds of love sweep you off your feet you'll have come across someone whom you were destined to meet. A life together may then be as a many coloured and fragrant flower that can verily enrich the world around it like a long awaited shower. ______________________________

Quatrain #327 - When at the right time......
There is a sad song within my heart and it is echoed in the quiet of yours. Something about that silence, the lack of a voice between rushed heartbeats, contains a strange certainty which makes me completely uncertain. Your whispering thoughts have drifted around me like ink swirling through water and you have somehow swept me off my feet with the power of the cacophonous choruses, which I have only before felt in the winds of the sea. How, my love, can you make me feel such madness when your entire vocabulary merges into only three words when you look at me?

who the hell are you? how did you appear in my life, and sweep me away with your inviting eyes fed me pleasure and warmth left me high and dry, puzzled and craving more of your attention and gaze your laugh to be directed to me maybe you could put your hands on my waist again or around my neck it feels brand new to me and i'm sorry, that i almost back away each time this is probably all my fault i question if i'm the confusing one or if he is but i'd put money on him in a heartbeat

high and dry
I'd sweep you off your feet But i don't want to drop you So let's just pretend i just did. As long as we know it's genuine, it shouldn't be too big of a deal, right?
