He speaks
of love
some
eternal 
creature
reaching 
across
time 
to consume
us 
He 
a quiet 
simple 
human 
who in 
months
has somehow 
undone
brick 
by 
brick 
my
decades
of debris
concrete
solid 
structures
towering
walls
falling
free
in relief
at his feet
leaving 
me in awe
in lieu
of speech
He 
an engineer
building 
bridges 
out of the 
broken 
pieces 
of my heart
to guide me
across the stars
to carry me 
when the 
journey 
is hard
and I 
spill
tears
plead fears
and he hears
the truth 
in my cries
and he fashions
new words
new pages
blank
for new 
stages
new stories
now only 
written 
in a sweet 
soft language
soothing
replacing 
the anguish 
the ache 
the pain 
and offering 
a magic 
in its place
a quiet divination
coaxed  
gently from the earth
roots 
planted 
patiently making 
me question
my urge 
to flee
to be somewhere
other than this
in arms
other than his
He speaks 
of this 
building me 
a place to live
nestled 
in the quiet forest
of his heart
safe in the light
of the stars
He hangs
to make 
me smile 
He sits 
and waits
and stays
so still 
so my wild
feral heart 
feels peace
feels calm
feels him 
every time 
He speaks
his voice 
a balm
to my torn
and tattered 
soul 
He mends
stitch by stitch
and slowly
makes
me whole
He speaks
of love
some 
primordial 
force
and I concede
I bend 
I am 
of the belief 
maybe it waits
to joins us
together 
pressed
hard
till entropy 
makes us
a glittering haze
of stars
he speaks
of love
some 
eternal 
creature 
reaching 
across time
to heal me 
to change 
my wariness 
and I 
am maybe 
ready 
to let him 
call me 
his

Romance Words

I am looking for  a little bit  of romance I am weak for it in need of it the sweet  of it a confection  of care and feelings  with  delicate  textures buttery  vestures heartfelt  melt in my mouth  gestures I want kindness wrapped  like ribbons in my hair lace edged everything warm  low  lights soft  heat  gentle pressure urging pleas of please lavender  and velvet  soft at the back  of knees plush lush  rugs  to caress  my spine to beg me  to recline strawberry jam  on golden  spoons  under a golden  moon  hung low in the sky stars glowing the indigo blanket of night  the soft pastels  of dawn  sun casting gentle shadows on a verdant lawn checkered blankets wicker hampers a day  blue and bright hands in hands soft smiles bubblegum blushed cheeks subtle glances asking all the things  I need flowers  flirting ...

Diluted Words

self love cause I  let myself  cry in the shower hard ugly  racking  sobs chest  burning  lungs  gasping asking me to relax self love cause  I  admit to myself that I'm unhappy unworthy under self imposed pressures that I never  ease up on self love  cause  I know deep in the places I never let  anyone see I am nothing no one  never have been  never having the strength  to be my own best friend self love  cause I let myself remember  what was done  and I let the ache wash over  me hot as this water hot as this shame  that I claim when I think  of opening up  of being vulnerable  self love cause I won't ever be  that weak  I will keep  my distance my dismissive  dark thoughts  at the forefront  of my mind  self love  cause I'm too broken to fuck  around and find love  find out that I was right  this whole time ...

Smoke Words

Soot stains my tongue from the ash remnants  of the fire we made the blaze in our wake fingers black, trails down the back of my spine now singed tinged with the time taken to grind  bones  down  slow I, mortar you pestle nestled at the base of me settled  sweet  drawing ache from me  working circles  smoothing  soothing surfing at the wake of me sheets steeped the sweet tea  of wet sex sweat  salt  sea I imagine we look like shadows charcoal  on canvas smudged  soft spread across all our angles with abandon with fervor  ravenous  for flesh  teeth bared  mouth  begging to be fed the slow simmer  of glances becomes actions kisses are kindling  igniting  inviting  heat  builds burns bright brighter blinding  we explode  stars in our throes  cries in our throats tears  spill hot  dampen  darken embers taper to glow walls coated in gold we red...
