Caricamento in corso...

Unfinished

Some days  you woke up before me,
And some days I before you,
But either way I knew, one of us would be watching the other sleep if only for
The few moments  long enough to
Appreciate sunlight on skin
I tried to keep you out at first
But when I let you in
You were in .
I opened my heart like school doors and felt a crowd of you  trample through
And I never closed
I stayed open with enough vacant to make room for
Memories I’d rewind and play and words I’d remember like  rehearsed lines
To a play.
Yeah I want honesty and openness I want you in the thickest heaviest form
Of  raw human
and blunt ness
I wanna know your secrets.
I want to be the glass you throw when your angry if it makes you feel better
When I’m too cold to feel my fingers,
You’re my space heater.
I wanna be your favorite winter hat.
I wanna be  your morning song you hum in the shower
When you squint your eyes and smile under the water
I wanna  be the eyelash that falls and the wish too.
I want to unlace you to learn how you wrap back up
And I know there are so many things I say I want,
But I  also have so many I say I love.
I love you boo
I will love you when I’m four hundred and two
As strong as I did the first time I said it back
I promise if you are ever falling I will be your steady
And I will be your cry shoulder when your ready.
I will cherish eyes because of how yours look
When they undress me
Your skin on mine makes us new
My bones are water in the presence f you
This must be what it means to adore
This must be what it means for love to be blind too,
I would love you if you had several ears instead of two
If you grew to weigh three hundred and six
If you lost all your hair or the color of your skin was always red
I would still love you from your toes to the top of your head
Sometimes we kiss and I am anxious
to dance.
I don’t understand how you don’t like Christmas because your company
Feels like holiday
And I will wait a bit to tell you I feel like you are the only one for me.
You’re “the bees knees” & I am happily “your girl”
And winning the lottery or changing the world are decent relations
To emotional realization I experience with
Your hand undoing my clenched fist
You open me like sunset
I wish our bodies were swingset
I wld soar back to you
And deduct our distance.
I love how you love me
Even after seeing me transparent
You know all my corners,
Have seen beneath my shiny tiles fortune teller style.
But you oragami my sad into swan.
You like that I love everyone,
& think good of them too easily.
You like my real laugh
Better than my 'you’re n public right now’ laugh,
You accept me for my bright future my iffy present & my guilty past.
You like the freckles under my nose
You make me say I’m beautiful
When I just want to hide my face.
I love when you say you love me & include my middle name
I love
You, Erica Faith.
You are the conductor of my heart race,
I hit your chest at the red stripe finish line
Into your first place embrace.
You think it’s silly how study your face
But I like your freckles too,
And am still trying to find the Little Dipper to accompany your Ryan’s belt.
I’m not as scared to feel you gone
Because your  here is still felt.
I know miles don’t wither the trust we built.
The seeds you’ve grown in my skin reaped dandelions
I am wishing for others now in every one of them.
