I have never imagined you to be tainted
Unlike the others I have loved,
You have shown me smooth skin, taught me unknown freckles
Braving through the borders of my curves,
Slicing through the doubts
My arms are a fountain of glorious wonders, and I will share my hands
If you promise to always interlock them with yours
I will return the favour and forever promise to kiss you inside out
Only the light you carry when it dims the dark
I may colour you blue some days, but you will be at to be strong enough to show me I’m wrong
Sometimes the rivers will feel like oceans, and the hill mounds like Everest
But diligently and gracefully we will swim, climb even crawl If that’s what it takes
Conquer all but conquer none, whatever the path it will stretch and wind in front of us with everlasting gold plates of experience
Truth be told The wind at my back feel more like kisses than daggers lately
And I have never pictured love to have such a kind smile
I never knew love What have curls around his ears
Or rough hands that would wrap around me with an a brace that can only be described as home
But I know now that love carries the weight of me
And it is just
And it is right
