"Mine"
Erth Valdez Apr 12
When your lips met mine, the world went still,
A quiet storm, a sacred thrill.
Your kiss — a drug I can’t unfeel,
Soft and deep, so achingly real.

Your tongue danced fire across my soul,
In that moment, I lost control.
You tasted like a dream I’d chased,
And in your breath, my heart was placed.

I kissed your neck — you gasped, you sighed,
And love bites bloomed where passion lied.
A map of moments drawn in red,
My silent vows upon your skin were said.

You let me touch where few have been,
And in that trust, you let me in.
I held your chest — so soft, so warm,
Your heartbeat pounding through the storm.

When I went low and felt you there,
I saw your body laid out bare.
The way you trembled, closed your eyes,
It felt like I had touched the skies.

And when you rose and took control,
You made a kingdom of my soul.
I saw the fire within your eyes,
And felt like gods had heard our cries.

You rode me like a whispered prayer,
And I was breathless, lost in air.
Not lust alone — it was divine,
That holy ache: you were all mine.

This wasn’t just about our skin,
But everything you hold within.
I saw your love, your fear, your light,
And vowed to hold you every night.

You are my storm, my calm, my flame,
The one I’d die to call my name.
And if this life is ours to weave —
Then love, I swear, I’ll never leave.

"Just Her"
Erth Valdez Apr 12
They say,
“If you ever find a girl, let her treat you right,”
as if I’m still searching,
as if my heart is still wandering through crowds
looking for someone to hold.

But I have found her.
Not just someone—
Her.
My Bea.
My everything.

Let them talk of soulmates like distant stars,
as if love is a map we have to draw from scratch.
I’ve known mine from the moment
my heart leaned in without asking.

She says I deserve better.
But how do I explain?
How do I wrap lightning in words,
and place it gently in her hands?

She is the better.
She is the better days,
the better dreams,
the better me.

I don’t need someone who treats me right—
I need her,
with her endless thoughts,
with her worried “what ifs,”
with the way she guards my heart
even from herself.

I want to stand on every table
in every room she’s ever doubted herself
and shout,
“You. It’s always been you.”
And if the world asks again,
“If you ever find someone…”
I’ll smile and whisper,

I already did.
I don’t want anyone else.
Just her.

— The End —
